Which organelle is found in high numbers in heart cells due to their need for constant energy supply?

• Ribosomes because they synthesize proteins for the cell.

• Golgi apparatus because it packages proteins for the cell.

• Endoplasmic reticulum because it transports materials within the cell.

• Mitochondria because they produce energy for the cell.

What is a key difference in the role of the cell membrane between plant and animal cells?

• In animal cells, the cell membrane is the outermost boundary, whereas in plant cells, it lies just inside the cell wall.

• In plant cells, the cell membrane is the outermost boundary, whereas in animal cells, it lies just inside the cell wall.

• In animal cells, the cell membrane is responsible for photosynthesis, while in plant cells, it is not.

• In plant cells, the cell membrane is responsible for cellular respiration, while in animal cells, it is not.

How does the cell wall assist in regulating the internal environment of a plant cell?

• The cell wall is responsible for the synthesis of proteins.

• The cell wall facilitates the movement of chloroplasts within the cell.

• The cell wall provides structural support and protection.

• The cell wall acts as a barrier to all external substances.
