Question

which of the following characteristics is a true statement about human cells? human cells contain a cell wall for protection. human cells contain more mitochondria than plant cells. human cells are unique among the animal cells, in that they contain additional neural pathways. human cells are large in size and contain a nucleus.

Explanation:

1. Human cells do not have a cell - wall. Cell - walls are characteristic of plant, fungal, and some bacterial cells.
2. Plant cells can have a large number of mitochondria, and it's not accurate to say human cells always have more mitochondria than plant cells.
3. Neural pathways are a feature of the nervous system and not a characteristic that differentiates human cells from other animal cells at the cellular level.
4. Human cells are eukaryotic, meaning they are large in size (compared to prokaryotic cells) and contain a nucleus.

Answer:

Human cells are large in size and contain a nucleus.
