Question

Which of the following correctly describes contrasting features of a plant cell and an animal cell?
Plant cells have a cell membrane, and animals have both cell walls and a cell membrane.
Plant cells have lysosomes with enzymes, while animal cells have only the Golgi apparatus.
Plant cells have a large central vacuole that takes up most of the cell’s space, and animal cells have many smaller vacuoles.
Plant cells have both rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, while animal cells have only smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

Answer 1

Answer:

Plant cells have a large central vacuole that takes up most of the cell’s space, and animal cells have many smaller vacuoles.

Explanation:

Plant cells are characterized by the presence of large vacuoles present in the center of the cell. The vacuole is large enough to occupy as much as 90% volume of the plant cell.  

On the other hand, animal cells have a centrally located nucleus. They do not have large vacuole. Rather, animal cells have many smaller vacuoles that are present near the periphery of the cell.  

Answer 2

Answer:

Plant cells have a large central vacuole that takes up most of the cell’s space, and animal cells have many smaller vacuoles.
