Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Animal cells DO NOT have ____
A
Mitochondria
B
Lysosomes
C
Vacuoles
D
Chloroplasts
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: -Animal cells do not contain chloroplasts. Plants cells have chloroplasts as well as mitochondria, but animals have only mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-3: -After photosynthesis, the sugar is broken down by the mitochondria to produce energy. Animals don’t need chloroplasts because they acquire sugar from their diet; they just need mitochondria. Vacuoles are found in both plant and animal cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cyanobacteria and some other photosynthetic bacteria don’t have chloroplasts.

Detailed explanation-5: -Animal Cells versus Plant Cells Animal cells each have a centrosome and lysosomes, whereas plant cells do not. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts and other specialized plastids, and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not.
