A typical plant cell wall is rich in:

-
The organelle that performs photosynthesis is the:
{“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:60,”topic”:”Introduction To Plant”,”choices”:[“Mitochondrion”,”Chloroplast”,”Centriole”,”Lysosome”],”correct”:1,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and the photosynthetic machinery.”}

Unlike most animals, plants typically:
{“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:60,”topic”:”Introduction To Plant”,”choices”:[“Are sessile and grow throughout life at meristems”,”Lack cell walls”,”Have no DNA”,”Cannot reproduce”],”correct”:0,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Modular, indeterminate growth from meristems is a plant hallmark.”}

-
Plants store most carbohydrate as:
{“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:60,”topic”:”Introduction To Plant”,”choices”:[“Starch”,”Glycogen in liver”,”Chitin granules”,”Urea”],”correct”:0,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Starch in plastids is the usual plant storage polysaccharide.”}
-
True or false: Plant cells generally have a large central vacuole.
{“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:60,”topic”:”Introduction To Plant”,”choices”:[“True”,”False”],”correct”:0,”type”:”true_false”,”explain”:”The vacuole stores water and solutes and helps keep cells turgid.”}
