Which of the following describes organelle structures that plant and animal cells have in common? a) they both have ribosomes that are used to synthesize proteins and a cell membrane that serves as a selective barrier for the cell. b) they both have a central vacuole that stores water and food and mitochondria that releases energy from glucose molecules. c) they both have chloroplasts where conversion of light to chemical energy occurs and a cell membrane that serves as a selective barrier for the cell. d) they both have a cell wall that provides protection and support and a nucleus where dna is stored. (i think its a)

A) They both have ribosomes that are used to synthesize proteins and a cell membrane that serves as a selective barrier for the cell.

Explanation:

It is not B because animal cells do not have big vacuolas if they had any they are small, but it is common to have them in vegetal cells.

It is not C because animal cells do not have chloroplasts because they do not do photosynthesis its energy is taken by metabolizing nutrients from food.

It is not D because the animal cell does not have a cell wall. Is made principally of cellulose, a kind of carbohydrate, and its function is to protect the cell.

the answer for this question would be d. glaciers

is this a psat question, if so do not cheat try your best.
