Explanation:

• Plant cells do not have vacuoles, but animal cells can have them: This is false. Plant cells typically have a large central vacuole, while animal cells can have small vacuoles.
• Both plant and animal cells have cell membranes: This is true. The cell membrane is a common feature of all cells (plant, animal, prokaryotic etc.), as it controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
• The nucleus of an animal cell contains the chromosomes but not the vacuoles: This is true. The nucleus houses the genetic material (chromosomes in the form of chromatin). Vacuoles (if present in animal cells, which are small) are in the cytoplasm, outside the nucleus.
• Both the lysosomes and the chromosomes are outside the nucleus in an animal cell: This is false. Lysosomes are in the cytoplasm (outside the nucleus), but chromosomes (in the form of chromatin) are inside the nucleus of an animal cell.

Answer:

• "Both plant and animal cells have cell membranes."
• "The nucleus of an animal cell contains the chromosomes but not the vacuoles."
