Which of the following is found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
A
Cytoplasm
B
Mitochondria
C
Cell Wall
D
Ribosomes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A plant cell is surrounded by a non-living cell wall. The plant cell wall is an outer layer of the cell and is mainly composed of cellulose. It is present in plants but absent in animals. Cellulose is a polysaccharide type of carbohydrate consisting of several hundred to many thousands of units of glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Both animal and plant cells have mitochondria, but only plant cells have chloroplasts. Plants don’t get their sugar from eating food, so they need to make sugar from sunlight. This process (photosynthesis) takes place in the chloroplast.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The chloroplasts and lysosomes are the membrane-bound organelles that are not found in both plant and animal cells. The chloroplasts are found only in the plant cells and do not occur in the animal cells. They are a type of plastids that act as sites of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, plasmodesmata, and plastids used for storage, and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not.

Detailed explanation-5: -The cell wall is not present in animal cells. The outermost covering of the animal cell is the cell membrane.
