Question

select all the true statements.
both plant and animal cells have cell membranes.
the nucleus of an animal cell contains the chromosomes but not the vacuoles.
the cytoplasm of a plant cell has a golgi, endoplasmic reticulum, and chloroplasts.

Explanation:

• Both plant and animal cells have cell membranes. This is a fundamental characteristic of all cells as the cell membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell.
• The cytoplasm of a plant cell has a Golgi, endoplasmic reticulum, and chloroplasts. The Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum are common organelles in eukaryotic cells (both plant and animal), and chloroplasts are specific to plant cells (for photosynthesis).
• The nucleus of an animal cell contains chromosomes (which carry genetic information) and also has a nucleolus (involved in ribosome synthesis). So the statement "The nucleus of an animal cell contains the chromosomes but not the vacuoles" is incorrect as vacuoles are not part of the nucleus description and the nucleus has other components like the nucleolus.

Answer:

• Both plant and animal cells have cell membranes.
• The cytoplasm of a plant cell has a Golgi, endoplasmic reticulum, and chloroplasts.
