I can identify the main parts of a plant cell.

1
Plant cells have a cell wall outside the cell membrane, which provides structure for the plant.
2
Chloroplasts capture light from the sun to produce sugar for the plant through a process called photosynthesis.

A large central vacuole stores water and other materials, and plasmodesmata act like telephones to connect cells.
