Help please! >.< will fan and medal! Which statements describe how plant and animal cells are similar? Choose ALL answers that are correct. A. Both plant and animal cells have mitochondria for cellular respiration. B. Both plant and animal cells have cell walls that are used for support and protection. C. Both plant and animal cells have a nucleus that contains genetic material. D. Both have chloroplasts that enable them to perform photosynthesis.
I think it's a, b and c
Animal cells don't have Chloroplast, chloroplast are used to produce glucose using sunlight, and animals get their food/energy from eating off other living organisms. Animals also don't have cell walls. Cell walls are usually used in plant cells for protection by using cellulose while animal cells have cell membrane made out of phospholipid and proteins. Cell walls give stability for plants, that's why they're found to be more inflexible then animals. Yet, both of them have mitochondria for cellular respiration and nucleus that contains genetic material. Every living organism contains genetic materials either in the nucleus or in a nuclei region.
