Quick student answer
Which of the following structures is found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
Direct answer
Cell wall
Key terms
- Chloroplast: An organelle found in plant cells that is responsible for photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy.
- Cell wall: A rigid outer layer found in plant and fungal cells that provides structural support and protection.
Common trap
Confusing plant and animal cell structures: Remember that chloroplasts are involved in photosynthesis and are absent in animal cells, while the cell wall is present in plant and fungal cells but not in animal cells.
