Which statement applies to both a plant cell and an animal cell? (1 point)

Question

A cell membrane regulates the movement of materials in and out of the cell.

Chloroplasts make food for the cell using the energy of sunlight.

A large, central vacuole provides water and certain nutrients for the cell.

A cell wall surrounds, protects, and provides structure for the cell.

Answer 1

The statement that applies to both a plant cell and an animal cell is:

A cell membrane regulates the movement of materials in and out of the cell.

Plant and animal cells both have a cell membrane that controls the passage of substances in and out of the cell. The other statements apply specifically to plant cells (like chloroplasts and a large central vacuole) or relate to plant cells only (cell wall).
