Notes
Cellulose wall + large vacuole + chloroplasts = the hallmarks of a plant cell. Water sets the turgor pressure → the plant is firm or wilting.
Adjust water & light on the right · try wilting & plasmolysis · tap “Compare” & organelles for details

About Plant Cell

Plant Cell is one of 20 topics in the Cell & Genetics domain (10⁻⁵ m scale) at My Labs — an interactive simulation atlas. This virtual lab runs right in your browser: adjust the parameters, pick a scenario and watch the phenomenon change in real time, with a click-to-inspect cross-section for every structure.
