Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How are plant and animal cells similar?
A
They have chloroplasts, mitochondrias, AND cell walls
B
They have a nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell membranes
C
They have the same shape
D
They have large vacuoles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Structurally, plant and animal cells are very similar because they are both eukaryotic cells. They both contain membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and peroxisomes. Both also contain similar membranes, cytosol, and cytoskeletal elements.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant and animal cells also have many common organelles, including the nucleus, cell membrane (called the plasma membrane in animals), endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and cytoplasm, as well as several others.

Detailed explanation-4: -Animal cells are mostly round and irregular in shape while plant cells have fixed, rectangular shapes. Plant and animal cells are both eukaryotic cells, so they have several features in common, such as the presence of a cell membrane, and cell organelles, like the nucleus, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum.

Detailed explanation-5: -The function of the cell membrane is to regulate the flow of water and other material in and out of the cell. It also acts as a protective barrier. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.
