The cells the students are viewing are plant cells due to the observation of chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are specific to plant cells and are responsible for photosynthesis, which is not found in animal cells. While both plant and animal cells contain mitochondria and ribosomes, the presence of chloroplasts indicates that the cells are from a plant organism.
Students are examining cells from a certain organism under a microscope. They notice mitochondria, a nucleus, chloroplasts, and ribosomes in each cell. What type of cells are they viewing and how do you know?(1 point) Responses Animal cells due to the observation of ribosomes Animal cells due to the observation of ribosomes Plant cells due to the observation of mitochondria Plant cells due to the observation of mitochondria Plant cells due to the observation of chloroplasts Plant cells due to the observation of chloroplasts Prokaryotic cells due to the observation of mitochondria
