question 11 (4 points) (02 03 mc) which of the following correctly compares the structures of plant and animal cells? a both plant and animal cells have a large central vacuole where enzymes, nutrients, and waste are stored. b both plant and animal cells have ribosomes which synthesize proteins for the cell. c both plant and animal cells have a nucleus where cellular respiration takes place. d both plant and animal cells have cell walls which transport substances into and out of the cell.

Explanation:

• Option a: Only plant cells typically have a large central vacuole. Animal cells may have small vacuoles.
• Option b: Ribosomes are present in both plant and animal cells and are responsible for protein - synthesis.
• Option c: Cellular respiration mainly occurs in mitochondria, not in the nucleus.
• Option d: Only plant cells have cell walls. Cell membranes are responsible for transporting substances in and out of both plant and animal cells.

Answer:

B. Both plant and animal cells have ribosomes which synthesize proteins for the cell.
