Solution

The correct options are
B
Plant cells do not have centrioles, whereas animal cell have centrioles

C
Plant cells have a single, large vacuole, whereas animal cells have many small vacuoles

D
Plant cell have plastids, whereas animal cells do not have plastids

Plant cells are characterized by a rigid cell wall; a single, large, central and permanent vacuole and plastids. They do not possess centrioles. Animal cells, on the other hand never have a cell wall. They lack plastids. Vacuoles if present in animal cells are small, temporary and many. Centrioles are unique to animal cells.
