Q9

A plant cell differ from animal in having

A.
chloroplast
B.
cell wall
Answer
C.
cell membrane
D.
nucleus

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Option A: chloroplast
Chloroplasts are organelles found only in plant cells and some algae.
They are responsible for photosynthesis, the process of converting sunlight into energy.
Animal cells do not have chloroplasts, as they obtain energy by consuming food.

Option B: cell wall
Plant cells have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose that surrounds the cell membrane.
This cell wall provides support, protection, and shape to the plant cell.
Animal cells do not have a cell wall.

Option C: cell membrane
Both plant and animal cells have a cell membrane.
The cell membrane is a thin layer that surrounds the cell and controls what enters and exits.
So, this is NOT a difference.

Option D: nucleus
Both plant and animal cells have a nucleus.
The nucleus contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and controls the cell's activities.
So, this is NOT a difference.

Therefore, the things that make a plant cell different from an animal cell are chloroplasts and cell wall.
