Solution

The correct option is C Both A and B.
Plant cells have cell wall, plastids, and a large central vacuole, which are not found in animal cells. The cell wall is a rigid covering that protects the cell, provides structural support and gives shape to the cell.
The chloroplasts, found in plant cells, contain a green pigment called as chlorophyll, which captures the light energy that drives the reactions of plant photosynthesis.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
