It's a pretty common misconception that only animal cells undergo cellular respiration, for a while I even thought that until my teacher told me otherwise.

Basically, an animal cell, say a human muscle cell, takes the glucose that was provided though food, and uses it for cellular respiration (C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6H20 + 6CO2 + ATP (heat)).

For plants, is simply autotrophically making that G3P molecule which can then be turned into organic compounds (like glucose) for cellular respiration to make ATP.

Plant cells differ from animal cells in what ways?

The plant cells have cell wall, large vacuoles, plasmodesmata, cementing of cells by calcium pectate etc. These charateristic features are absent in animal cells. Thank you

Why do plant cells that transport water against the force of gravity contain many more mitochondria than other plant cells do?

The process of transporting water against gravity is called , so called because it requires energy to occur (as opposed to passive transport which occurs naturally). Now, the molecule which...
