Animal cells do not have a cell wall or ____, but plant cells do.
A
cell wall
B
chloroplast
C
function
D
nucleus
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Because animals get sugar from the food they eat, they do not need chloroplasts: just mitochondria. Both plant and animal cells have vacuoles. A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts and other specialized plastids, and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant cells have certain distinguishing features, including chloroplasts, cell walls, and intracellular vacuoles. Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts; cell walls allow plants to have strong, upright structures; and vacuoles help regulate how cells handle water and storage of other molecules.

Detailed explanation-4: -However, not all parts of a plant structure are suitable to do this, so not all types of plant cells contain chloroplasts. The plant cells that make up the roots and/or tubers typically do not contain chloroplasts since it would be useless to have them.
