Plant Cell and its Organelles |
I would like to be a eukaryotic plant cell because even though my cell wall limits me from movement, I get maximum protection from the outside. Therefore, I am not as easily damaged as the other cells, Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Animal, and can live a longer life. Also, I would have chloroplast which would create "food" that my mitochondria would alter transform into ATP, so that I can have energy to work right. This is the opposite for animal cells, which acquire their food from outside sources. Being able to "feed" itself to create its own energy, and having cell walls that protect and shape the plant cell, is an advantage over animal cells, which depend on many more factors to keep themselves working and healthy. Prokaryotic cells would also not be my first choice because even though they can be free moving with their flagella, they have no nucleus. It would be like a car without a driver. The nucleus is like the cell's "brain", and I would much more prefer having a brain than a car.
