Which features do animal cells share with plant cells?

Correct answer: C. Nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria

  • A. Nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell wall
  • B. Chloroplast, cell wall, and mitochondria
  • C. Nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria
  • D. Vacuole, chloroplast, and ribosomes

Explanation

Both animal and plant cells contain a nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria, which are essential components for cellular function. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts or a cell wall, which are characteristic of plant cells. Therefore, the correct answer is the option listing the nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria. Other options include organelles or structures not found in animal cells, making them incorrect.
