Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Some organisms like plants are sessile i.e. they are fixed at a place and do not move. Hence, locomotion is a characteristic that is not exhibited by all living organisms.

Detailed explanation-2: -Centrosomes are present in animal cells and absent in plant cells. Hence the absence of the centrosome is the only characteristic of the plant cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -The four main characteristics of plants are photosynthesis, cuticle, cell Walls and reproduction.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant cells contain chloroplasts that capture light energy from the sun and use it with water and carbon dioxide to make their own food (sugars) in a process called photosynthesis. Animal cells do not contain chloroplast, thus they do not make their own food.

Detailed explanation-5: -Plants are multicellular eukaryotes. They have organelles called chloroplasts and cell walls made of cellulose. Plants also have specialized reproductive organs. Almost all plants make food by photosynthesis. Life as we know it would not be possible without plants. 05-Mar-2021
