Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which organelles are only found in plant cells?
A
Cell Wall and cell membrane
B
Cell wall and chloroplast
C
cell wall and ribosomes
D
cell membrane and vacuole
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The organelles found only in plant cells include chloroplast, cell wall and a vacuole. The chloroplasts contain a green pigment chlorophyll that is responsible for the process of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chloroplasts contain green pigment called chlorophyll which helps in manufacture of food through the process of photosynthesis. Since, animals do not manufacture food so they do not need chloroplast. And hence, chloroplast is found only in plant cell.

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: -Plastids are the cell organelles that are found only in plant cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Plant cells are surrounded by a tough extracellular matrix in the form of a cell wall, which is responsible for many of the unique features of a plant’s life style.
