what is the Lysosome?
In both, contains digestive enzymes that destroy damaged organelles and invaders.
What is Cytoplasm?

What is Mitochondria?

What is Rough ER?
In both, build and transports substances through the cell and has ribosomes on it.
What is Smooth ER?
In both, builds up and transports substances through the cell but does not have ribosomes on it.
What is the Ribosome?
In both, helps make proteins for the cell.
What is the Cell Wall?
In plant, gives shape and protection to the plant cell.
What is Chloroplast?
In plant, changes sunlight into sugar for the plant cells and contains a green pigment called chlorophyll.
