Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What does a Plant cell have that a Animal cell doesn’t?
A
Cell wall
B
Mitochondria
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. In plants, the cell wall surrounds the cell membrane. This gives the plant cell its unique rectangular shape. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plant cell needs cell wall whereas animal cell do not because the plants need rigid structure so that they can grow up and out . All cells have cell membranes, and the membranes are flexible. So animal cells can have various shapes, but plant cells only have the shapes of their cell walls. Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-3: -Animal cells do not have cell wallsbecause they do not need them. Cell walls, which are found in plant cells, maintain cell shape, almost as if eachcell has its own exoskeleton. This rigidity allows plants to stand upright without the need for bones .

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant cells have cell walls around them, but it is not so in the animal cell. It gives plant cells their boxy shapes and ability to grow up and out so that they get lots of sunlight for making their food. Plants need a rigid structure. Animal cells have flexible cell membranes.

Detailed explanation-5: -The organelles found only in plant cells include-chloroplast, cell wall, plastids, and a large central vacuole. The chloroplasts contain a green pigment chlorophyll that is responsible for the process of photosynthesis.
