structure plays in a plant cell
GCSE
• Write down the word equation
for photosynthesis
Key Words - Vacuole, chloroplast,

 Draw a line to match the parts of
the cell to the correct cell.
 Highlight the three parts that are
found only in a plant cell
 How can we see a cell?
 Draw and label a plant leaf cell
 Describe the function of the cell
wall, vacuole and chloroplast
 Which two parts of the cell are
found inside the cytoplasm?
 What main substances are allowed
through the cell membrane
 Draw and label a plant leaf cell
 Which cell do you think will be
larger – a plant cell or an animal
cell? Explain your answer
 Why do you think plant cells need
extra structures that are not
found in animal cells?

confidently achieved
today?
3. What outcome would
you like to improve
your knowledge on?
Low
• Label an animal cell and a plant cell.

cell membrane, mitochondria,
cytoplasm, cell wall, vacuole and
chloroplast.
GCSE
• Recall the word equation fo respiration
and state where this process takes
place within the cell.
