What is the difference between an animal cell and a plant cell?

Plant cells do not contain a nucleus
Plant cells contain cell walls
Animal cells contain organelles
Animal cells do not contain a nucleus

The correct answer is: Plant cells contain cell walls

An animal cell and a plant cell have several differences, but the main difference is that plant cells have cell walls while animal cells do not. While both cells have a nucleus and various organelles, plant cells also have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose, whereas animal cells have a flexible cell membrane. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect as they either contain inaccurate information or do not fully encompass the main difference between the two cell types.
