Answer 3

The correct response is:

**Animal bodies have skeletons or other means of providing structure.**

This is a reason why animal cells do not need a central vacuole, as the skeletal system or other structural features provide support and shape.

Answer 4

The correct response is:

**cells in plant leaves**

Chloroplasts are found in plant cells, particularly in the leaves, where they are responsible for photosynthesis. While chloroplasts can also be present in other parts of the plant, they are most commonly associated with leaves.

Answer 5

The correct response is:

**plasma membrane**

All cells, including round animal cells that cannot produce their own food, have a plasma membrane that encases the cell and regulates the movement of substances in and out.
