What is the main difference between animal cells and plant cells?
Animal cells have a rigid cell wall, while plant cells do not.
Plant cells have a rigid cell wall, while animal cells do not.
Animal cells have chloroplasts, while plant cells do not.
Plant cells lack a nucleus, while animal cells have one.
What is the primary function of organelles in a cell?
To perform tasks to keep the cell working
To store energy for the cell
To protect the cell from harm
To control the cell's movement
Why is the nucleus often compared to a king?
Because it provides energy to the cell.
Because it controls and gives instructions to the rest of the cell.
Because it helps in cell movement.
Because it stores food for the cell.
