Make sure that ubuntu-desktop-minimal is installed. Open a terminal and run this command:

sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop-minimal

GNOME's new Appearance panel is a feature from gnome-control-center 42 but Ubuntu 22.04 LTS includes gnome-control-center 41.

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS does have a similar Appearance panel but it's only available for the Ubuntu session.
