What structures distinguish a plant cell from an animal cell?

• Plant cells have cell walls and ribosomes.
• Plant cells have cell walls and chloroplasts.
• Plant cells have chloroplasts and ribosomes.
• Plant cells have chloroplasts and mitochondria.

When cells are damaged, new cells are created by cell division. How does the cell theory support this fact?

• It states that all cells have a nucleus which divides.
• It states that all living things are made up of one or more cells.
• It states that cells come from previously existing cells.
•  It states that the basic units of structure and function are cells.
