Comparing a leaf palisade cell and liver cell
In this essay I will be comparing the organisation of two eukaryotic cells. The leaf palisade cell and the liver cell using details revealed by the light and electron microscope. I will be focusing on the important structures of each cell, explain what they do and why they are unique or similar to each other.
A eukaryotic cell is a membrane-bounded organelle; it usually contains mitochondria and chloroplasts within the outer plasma membrane of the cell. The eukaryotic cell is used for metabolism processes, contains enzymes for a particular metabolic pathway and if any anti bodies or harmful reactants enter the cell it can be isolated in an organelle so it does not harm the entire cell.
