What are the 3 key differences between plant and animal cells?

A

Plants have cell walls, chloroplast, and central vacuole

19
Q

What is the endosymbiont Theory?

A

Origin story of chloroplast and mitochondria; comes from bacteria that de-evolved that became useful to the cell. reason why it is independent from cell

20
Q

What are viruses and what are they made of?
