differentiate between vacuole and plastids
Answers
Explanation:
Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells only, while vacuoles can also be found in animal cells. Animals cells may have small vacuoles (much smaller than plant cells), and often have more vacuoles than plant cells. Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for plants' capability to carry out the process of photosynthesis. It is photosynthesis that generates food for other life forms and oxygen for all of us to breathe. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a pigment, that captures the sun light and converts it into chemical energy. Vacuoles are large-sized fluid filled organelle in the cells. These can occupy as much as 90% of the internal cell volume, although under normal
The large central vacuole is surrounded by its own membrane and contains water and dissolved substances. ... Plastids are membrane-bound organelles with their own DNA. Examples are chloroplasts and chromoplasts. Chloroplasts contain the green pigment chlorophyll and carry out photosynthesis.
