Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which statement is true about organelles that make food for animal and plant cells?
A
The mitochondria makes food for animal cells, and the nucleus makes food for plant cells.
B
The mitochondria makes food for plant cells, and the nucleus makes food for animal cells.
C
The chloroplasts make food for animal cells, but plant cells cannot make their own food.
D
The chloroplasts make food for plant cells, but animal cells cannot make their own food.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and eukaryotic algae that conduct photosynthesis. Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant. Q. Animals cells do not prepare their own food, but plant cells prepare their own food.

Detailed explanation-2: -Animal cells have another set of organelles not found in plant cells: lysosomes. The lysosomes are the cell’s “garbage disposal.” In plant cells, the digestive processes take place in vacuoles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Both plant and animal cells are eukaryotic, so they contain membrane-bound organelles like the nucleus and mitochondria. However, plant cells and animal cells do not look exactly the same or have all of the same organelles, since they each have different needs.

Detailed explanation-4: -However, plant cells and animal cells do not look exactly the same or have all of the same organelles, since they each have different needs. For example, plant cells contain chloroplasts since they need to perform photosynthesis, but animal cells do not.

Detailed explanation-5: -Which statement is true about organelles that make food for animal and plant cells? The mitochondria makes food for animal cells, and the nucleus makes food for plant cells.
