Which of the following statements are correct regarding the general difference between plant and animal cells? 1. Plant cells have cellulose cell walls whilst animal cells do not. 2. Plant cells do not have a plasma membrane, unlike animal cells that do. Select the correct answer using the code given below: Correct Answer 1 only

The correct answer is 1 only.

Key Points

  • Cell: 
    • The cell is the fundamental unit of life. All the life activities are carried out by cells.
    • The organisms are classified based on the number of cells present in them.
    • Unicellular organisms are single-celled, while multicellular organisms have a large number of cells. 
    • Differences between the plant cell and animal:
      • ​The cell wall is present in Plant cells while it is absent in an animal cells. A cell wall gives mechanical support to a plant cell. Hence statement 1 is correct
      • Plants have both a cell wall that is made up of cellulose and a cell membrane (plasma membrane). The cell wall is, a rigid membrane matrix found on the surface of all plant cells whose primary role is to protect the cell and its content. Hence statement 2 is incorrect.
      • Plant cells have a large central vacuole that can occupy up to 90% of the cell’s volume. Animal cells may have many small vacuoles, a lot smaller than the plant cell.
