- Plant cells contain chloroplast while animal cells do not.
- Plant cells are small while animal cells are large in size
- Plant cells contain nucleus while animal cells do not
- Plant cells and animal cells are similar in all respects
- Plant cells contain chloroplast while animal cells do not.
Correct Option: A
Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls allow plants to have rigid structures as varied as wood trunks and supple leaves; and vacuoles allow plant cells to change size.
