Question
A plant cell can be distinguished from an animal cell by the presence of which structure?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Plant cells possess a rigid cell wall outside the cell membrane, which provides structural support and protection, and is absent in animal cells. Both plant and animal cells have a nucleus and a cell membrane. Soft cartilage is an animal tissue.
Hint
Consider the outermost protective layer that gives plants their distinct shape and rigidity.
