Describe one of the cells you looked at in our microscope exploration

onion skin- looked like bricks

plant cell- had a bunch of circles

Explain which category PLANTS fall into an why

Plants are multicellular because they have many cells, reproduce, have cell organelles= parts of the cells that do different jobs
