Question

the above diagram shows two eukaryotic cells. use the diagram and your knowledge of cells to complete the following statement:
there are some key differences between both of these cells. animal cells have a __, whereas plant cells do not. plants cells have a cell wall, a (a green pigmented structure that helps carry out photosynthesis), and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not. plant and animal cells both have __, but these organelles are more numerous in animal cells.
move the correct answers to the correct boxes.

Explanation:

1. For the first blank (Animal cells have a ____, whereas plant cells do not): Animal cells have centrioles (involved in cell division), and plant cells lack centrioles in most cases.
2. For the second blank (Plants cells have a cell wall, a ____ (a green pigmented structure that helps carry out photosynthesis)): Chloroplasts are the green - pigmented (due to chlorophyll) organelles in plant cells that perform photosynthesis.
3. For the third blank (Plant and animal cells both have ____, but these organelles are more numerous in animal cells): Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell, present in both plant and animal cells, and are more abundant in animal cells as they have higher energy requirements for activities like movement.

Answer:

• First blank: centriole
• Second blank: chloroplast
• Third blank: mitochondria
