Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How can a plant cell and animal cell be identified?
A
Plant Cells have Cell Membranes.
B
Plants Cells have Cell Walls and Animal Cells do not.
C
Plant Cells have Cell Walls and make their own food.
D
Animals Cells have a nucleus and plant cells do not.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel. These primary producers form the base of an ecosystem and fuel the next trophic levels.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant cells can be distinguished from most other cells by the presence of chloroplasts, which are also found in certain algae.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. 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.

Detailed explanation-5: -A cell can make its own food or get it from somewhere else. Animal cells must take food in from some other source. Plants, on the other hand, have the ability to make their own food through a process called photosynthesis.
