Question

ariana garcia aponte’s practice p.6 compare cells and cell parts get 4 correct in a row select all the true statements. both plant and animal cells can have chromosomes. an animal cell has a cell wall, but a plant cell does not. plant cells do not have chloroplasts, but animal cells can have them. plant cells do not have endoplasmic reticulum, but animal cells can have endoplasmic reticulum.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • "Both plant and animal cells can have chromosomes": True. Both plant and animal cells (when they are eukaryotic and in the process of cell division or in the nucleus of non - dividing cells) have chromosomes as they are eukaryotic cells with a nucleus that contains genetic material organized into chromosomes.
  • "An animal cell has a cell wall, but a plant cell does not": False. Plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose, while animal cells do not have a cell wall.
  • "Plant cells do not have chloroplasts, but animal cells can have them": False. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells (and some protists) that are responsible for photosynthesis. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts.
  • "Plant cells do not have endoplasmic reticulum, but animal cells can have endoplasmic reticulum": False. Both plant and animal cells have endoplasmic reticulum (rough and smooth) which is involved in protein and lipid synthesis.

So the only true statement is "Both plant and animal cells can have chromosomes".

Answer:

The true statement is: Both plant and animal cells can have chromosomes.
