Which of the following statements BEST identifies each cell type based on her data table?
A
Cell A is an animal cell because it has centrioles, which are specific to animal cells for mitosis; Cell B is the plant cell because it has a cell wall and chloroplasts, which are specific to plant cells for cell integrity and photosynthesis; and Cell C is the bacterial cell because it has no nucleus and circular DNA, which are specific to bacterial cells because they lack membrane bound organelles and require simpler cellular functioning.
B
Cell A is a plant cell because it has small vacuoles and centrioles, specific to plant cells for photosynthesis; Cell B is an animal cell because it has large vacuoles and chloroplasts, which are specific to animal cells for storage; and Cell C is a bacterial cell because it has circular DNA and a flagellum, which are specific to bacterial cells for simpler cellular functioning and cell movement, respectively.
C
Cell A is a plant cell because it has small vacuoles and centrioles, which are specific to plant cells for photosynthesis and mitosis; Cell B is a bacterial cell because it has large vacuoles and a cell wall, which are specific to bacterial cells for storage and protection; and Cell C is an animal cell because it has cell wall and flagellum, which are specific to animal cells for protection and movement throughout the body.
D
Cell A is a bacterial cell because it has centrioles and small vacuoles, which are specific to bacterial cells for binary fission and storage; Cell B is a plant cell because it has a cell wall and chloroplasts, which are specific to plant cells for cell integrity and photosynthesis; and Cell C is an animal cell because it has a cell wall and flagellum, which are specific to animal cells for protection and movement throughout the body.
