Question

which of the following cellular components is found in plant cells but not bacterial cells?
cell wall
nucleus
ribosomes
cell membrane

Explanation:

• Cell walls exist in both plant cells (cellulose-based) and bacterial cells (peptidoglycan-based).
• Ribosomes are present in all living cells, including both plant and bacterial cells, for protein synthesis.
• Cell membranes (plasma membranes) are a universal feature of all cells.
• Plant cells are eukaryotic, meaning they have a membrane-bound nucleus holding their genetic material. Bacterial cells are prokaryotic, so they lack a membrane-bound nucleus and have their DNA in a nucleoid region instead.

Answer:

B. Nucleus
