Question

The difference between animal cells and plant cells is:

• A. Plant cells lack chloroplasts, which are abundant in animal cells
• B. Plant cells have large vacuole while animal cells have centrosomes
• C. Animal cells have thinner cell walls than plant cells
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is B Plant cells have large vacuole while animal cells have centrosomes

Centrosomes are found in animal cells but do not exist within plant cells. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts and other specialized plastids, and a large central vacuole, not found within animal cells. The central vacuole plays a crucial role in regulating a plant cell's water concentration in changing environmental conditions.
