Question

Animal cell differs from plant cells in possessing

• A. Plastid
• B. Centrosome
• C. Vacuole
• D. Golgi body

Hint:

Centrosomes with centrioles are found in animal cells but are absent in higher plant cells.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Animal cells possess a centrosome, which contains centrioles involved in spindle formation during cell division.
Step 2: Plant cells lack centrosomes and centrioles.
Step 3: Plastids and large central vacuoles are characteristic of plant cells.
Step 4: Golgi bodies are present in both plant and animal cells. Hence, the distinguishing feature is the presence of a centrosome in animal cells.
