Question:
Which of the following option(s) of the pairs of cell organelles are correctly placed under the given categories?
| Option | Present in the Plant Cells | Absent in the Animal Cells |
|---|---|---|
| (a) | Leucoplast | Cell wall |
| (b) | Mitochondria | Ribosome |
| (c) | Cell wall | Golgi apparatus |
| (d) | Lysosome | Endoplasmic reticulum |
Answer:
Verified
(a) Present in the Plant Cells: Leucoplast; Absent in the Animal Cells: Cell wall
Explanation: Leucoplasts are colourless plastids found only in plant cells, where they store food materials such as starch, oils, or proteins. They are entirely absent in animal cells. The cell wall is present in plant cells and provides shape, support, and rigidity to the cell. It is absent in animal cells.
