(3 Points)

a sunflower

a horsefly

a rabbit

a goldfish

Answer 1

Based on the presence of a cell wall, a nucleus, and chloroplasts, the type of cell Ms. Roque is examining is likely from a sunflower.

Here's the reasoning for each option:

• A sunflower: Plant cells have a cell wall, a nucleus, and chloroplasts for photosynthesis.
• A horsefly: Insect cells do not have a cell wall and lack chloroplasts.
• A rabbit: Animal cells (like those from a rabbit) also do not have a cell wall and lack chloroplasts.
• A goldfish: Similar to rabbits, fish cells do not have a cell wall and lack chloroplasts.

Thus, the correct answer is a sunflower.
