  2. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

  3. Fluid mosaic model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_mosaic_model

    Fluid mosaic model of a cell membrane. The fluid mosaic model explains various characteristics regarding the structure of functional cell membranes.According to this biological model, there is a lipid bilayer (two molecules thick layer consisting primarily of amphipathic phospholipids) in which protein molecules are embedded.

  4. Plasmodesma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasmodesma

    Plasmodesma. The structure of a primary plasmodesma. CW= cell wall, CA= callose, PM= plasma membrane, ER= endoplasmic reticulum, DM=desmotubule, Red circles= actin, Purple circles and spokes=other unidentified proteins [1] Plasmodesmata (singular: plasmodesma) are microscopic channels which traverse the cell walls of plant cells [2] and some ...

  5. Vascular tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_tissue

    Vascular tissue is a complex conducting tissue, formed of more than one cell type, found in vascular plants. The primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem. These two tissues transport fluid and nutrients internally. There are also two meristems associated with vascular tissue: the vascular cambium and the cork cambium.

  6. Apoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apoplast

    The apoplast is the extracellular space outside of plant cell membranes, especially the fluid-filled cell walls of adjacent cells where water and dissolved material can flow and diffuse freely. Fluid and material flows occurring in any extracellular space are called apoplastic flow or apoplastic transport. The apoplastic pathway is one route by ...

  7. Vesicle (biology and chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesicle_(biology_and...

    Vesicle (biology and chemistry) Scheme of a liposome formed by phospholipids in an aqueous solution. In cell biology, a vesicle is a structure within or outside a cell, consisting of liquid or cytoplasm enclosed by a lipid bilayer. Vesicles form naturally during the processes of secretion (exocytosis), uptake (endocytosis), and the transport of ...

  8. Vacuole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuole

    Plant cell structure. Animal cell structure. A vacuole (/ ˈvækjuːoʊl /) is a membrane-bound organelle which is present in plant and fungal cells and some protist, animal, and bacterial cells. [1][2] Vacuoles are essentially enclosed compartments which are filled with water containing inorganic and organic molecules including enzymes in ...

  9. Transfer cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_cell

    Transfer cell. Transfer cells are specialized parenchyma cells that have an increased surface area, due to infoldings of the plasma membrane. They facilitate the transport of sugars from a sugar source, mainly mature leaves, to a sugar sink, often developing leaves or fruits. They are found in nectaries of flowers and some carnivorous plants.
