C. The cell must be a plant cell. 

Only plant cells have cell walls. Bacteria cells and animal cells do not. Both animal cells and plant cells have membrane-bound organelles, but since the student saw a cell wall, it must be a plant cell.

Hope this helps! :)

The right answer is C. must be plant cells.

The bacteria certainly have a wall but do not have organelles.

Animal cells have no wall.

The plant cells are the very numerous elementary units constituting the vegetable organisms.

They generally comprise a cell nucleus surrounded by a cytoplasm, various organelles or plastids, all protected by a cell membrane. They can measure between 10 and 200 μm.

Plant cells are living systems. They are very different from the cells of organisms belonging to other eukaryotes. The main distinguishing features are:

*Large central vacuole (surrounded by a membrane, the tonoplast), which maintains the turgor of the cell and controls the exchange of molecules between the cytosol and the sap. These vacuoles serve as bins for plant cells, at the end of cell life, these vacuoles take up 90% of the cell space.

*A pectocellulosic wall made of cellulose and proteins, as well as lignin in many cases, and deposited by the protoplast outside the cell membrane. It is opposed to the cell wall of fungi, made of chitin, and prokaryotes, made of peptidoglycans.

*Plasmodesms, connecting the pores of the cell wall, which allows each plant cell to communicate with adjacent cells. This system is different from the network of hyphae present in fungi.

*Plastids, especially chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll, the pigment that gives plants their green color and is involved in the process of photosynthesis.

*The absence of centrosomes that are present in animal cells.

In an animal cell, what is the function of the lysosomes?
Alik [6]
<span><span><span>Release enzymes outside of the cell (exocytosis)</span>
which may serve the purpose of destroying materials around the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from inside the cell (autophagy)</span> 
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from inside the cell. 
This could include digesting worn-out organelles so that useful chemicals locked-up in their structures can be re-used by the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from outside the cell (heterophagy)</span>
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from outside the cell.
This could include breaking-down material taken-in by phagocytes, which include many types of white blood cells - also known as leucocytes. Specific mechanisms of heterophagy can be:<span><span>phagocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular debris, bacteria or other particles - only occurs in certain specialized cells</span><span>pinocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular fluid</span><span>endocytic - by which cells take-up particles such as molecules that have become attached to the outer-surface of the cell membrane.</span></span></span><span><span>Recycle the products of biochemical reactions that have taken place following materials being brought into the cell by endocytosis (general term for this 'recycling' function: biosynthesis) </span>
Different materials (chemicals) are processed in different ways, e.g. some structures may be processed/degraded within lysosomes and others are taken to the surface of the cell.</span><span>Completely break-down cells that have died (autolysis)</span></span>

In general, the functions of lysosomes involve breaking-down i.e. processing to 'make safe' or make use of, or removing from the cell e.g. by exocytosis, useless and potentially harmful materials such as old worn-out parts of the cell or potential threats such bacteria. Lysosomes can therefore be thought of as the rubbish disposal units within cel

What are the differences between hypothesis , theory, and law?
Blababa [14]
Hypothesis is what you think will happen before the experiment, it isn't necessarily backed up by any sources or evidence. A scientific law is the observation of a phenomenon and a theory is the explanation both can be used together to back each other up.

What is the cost and the core of a virus made of
Lisa [10]
Viruses are made of one or more nuclei acid molecules surrounded by a coat protein or capsid. So the core of the virus will contain the viral genome. Some viruses' capsid maybe enclosed with an envelope derived from the host cell (the cell that the virus is infecting), and this envelope is also derived from the host cell membrane.
