the nucleus of an animal cell contains the chromosomes but not the vacuoles.
chloroplasts are outside the nucleus of a plant cell.

• Mitochondria are present in both plant and animal cells as they are the powerhouses of the cell, generating ATP.
• The nucleus of an animal cell contains chromosomes (genetic material) but vacuoles (storage organelles) are not part of the nucleus.
• Chloroplasts (for photosynthesis in plant cells) are located in the cytoplasm, which is outside the nucleus.

Answer:

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