Document Summary
Animal cell- animals are a group of eukaryotic, multicellular, heterotrophic organisms that ingest organic matter for sustenance. Many animals have cells that differentiate into specialized tissues including epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous tissue. Parenchyma: these cells have thin walls, allowing free transfer of materials between membranes of adjacent cells. Major functions include formation of boundary layers (epidermis), chemical synthesis (chlorenchyma), and food storage. Sclerenchyma: these cells are thick-walled and nonliving at maturity. Among sclerenchyma cells are those that produce hard parts such as nut shells (stone cells), those that provide strength for stems (fibers), and those that transport water and dissolved minerals up the plant stem (vessel elements). Prepared slide of animal and plant cell. Procedure: get the prepared slide to your teacher, view the specimen under lpo and hpo, draw the specimen under lpo and hpo, identify the parts that is visible under the microscope.
