are these two one and the same? or does the panel can not function without the cell and vice versa?
i need to construct a battery charger using solar energy.. which one would i need? is solar panel enough? solar cell? or do i need to have both?
im quite confused. please help me.

solar cells collect the energy and a solar panel is just a bunch of solar cells connected together to get more energy.
Each cell generates about 0.5 Volts. To get more voltage, the cells are connected in series. To get more current, more cells are added in parallel. A Solar Panel is the result.
