Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which statement is true about organelles that make food for animal and plant cells?
A
The mitochondria makes food for animal cells, and the nucleus makes food for plant cells.
B
The mitochondria makes food for plant cells, and the nucleus makes food for animal cells.
C
The chloroplasts make food for animal cells, but plant cells cannot make their own food.
D
The chloroplasts make food for plant cells, but animal cells cannot make their own food.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The organelles are only found in plant cells and some protists such as algae. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells. It is like a solar panel that changes sunlight energy into electric energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -Which statement is true about organelles that make food for animal and plant cells? The mitochondria makes food for animal cells, and the nucleus makes food for plant cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -A plant cell contains a cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus, plastid, central vacuole, Golgi apparatus, ribosome, mitochondria, lysosome, etc. An animal cell does not have a cell wall and plastids. Thus, the correct answer is option C. i.e Animal cell lacks a cell wall.

Detailed explanation-5: -Which of these statements is true about plant and animal cells during the process of cell division? Both animal and plant cells develop a cell plate.
