Answer:
You will be able to tell whether the unknown cell is from an animal or from a plant through the knowledge of difference between plants and animal cells.
Explanation:
A cell can be defined as the simplest bit of living matter which exhibits a variety of shapes and sizes and that can exist independently.
When a slide of an unknown cell is studied under a microscope, different cell structures would be observed which would be used to conclude if the cell on the slide is a plant or animal cell.
The following features are observed in a plant cell:
--> cellulose cell wall is present
--> Chloroplast is present
--> A large central vacuole is present
--> Centriole is absent
The following features are observed in animal cell:
--> Cellulose cell wall is absent
--> Chloroplast is absent
--> Small vacuoles is present
--> Centriole is present
The difference between a plant and an animal cell can be seen from the features above and a clear knowledge of this will help the student tell whether the unknown cell is from an animal or from a plant.
