An animal cell with chloroplasts added
This plant cell does not have a clearly visible cell wall. In fact it looks like an animal cell with chloroplasts inserted.

A plant cell usually has a more rigid shape than a animal cell. This rounded shape is unusual. Also, there is no central vacuole shown.

Plants keep their shape because water flows into the central vacuole pushing the cytoplasm out to the sides. This image is misleading in that it is nowhere near typical. This should not be the lead image for the cell article.

p.s. Plant cells do not have visible centrioles. The microtubule organizing center is associated with the cell wall. A new image should be drawn for a plant cell. The chloroplasts should be removed, and we should just call this an animal cell. Rozzychan

Image will be removed from the article as it can be more appropriately placed elsewhere. This would also be more appropriately addressed on that article page rather than here as there is nothing directly incorrect about the diagram. The mandate for this image was an typical eukarytoic cell. not a typical plant cell. As a molecular biologist I can promise you that whilst the rounded plant cells aren't as common as the palisade cuboid shapes they are none the less existant. As for the cell wall, the thick banding around outside represents this, it does have a central vacuole ( a large membrane enclosed space to the left of the nucleus and lower chloroplast.) The image is pending conversion to SVG format where it will be given labels to clairfy the situation. It may be reuploaded to the page at such a time. I think the problem here isn't with the diagram but rather its description on that page, however whilst it is a 'work in progress' it is better taken down. --WikipedianProlific(Talk) 04:07, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
