Which two organelles are found only in plant cells (and not in animal cells)?
A
Chloroplasts and a large central vacuole
B
Golgi apparatus and rough endoplasmic reticulum
C
Lysosomes and centrioles
D
Mitochondria and ribosomes
Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the key differences between plant and animal cells, focusing on organelles unique to each type.
Identify organelles involved in photosynthesis and storage, which are typically found only in plant cells.
Recognize that chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for photosynthesis and are unique to plant cells.
Understand that the large central vacuole is a prominent feature in plant cells, used for storage and maintaining cell rigidity, and is generally absent or much smaller in animal cells.
Confirm that other organelles listed, such as Golgi apparatus, rough endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, centrioles, mitochondria, and ribosomes, are found in both plant and animal cells.
