Alyssa's additional observation would be cell Y having a larger vacuole than cell X. The third option is the correct one.
<h3>Plant cell vs animal cell</h3>
From the observations, both cells are eukaryotic. This is because:
- cell X has lysosomes which are only found in eukaryotic cells
- cell Y has a nucleus which also peculiar to eukaryotic cells only
Lysosome houses digestive enzymes and is found mostly in animal cells. Only a few plant cells have lysosomes.
Thus, the lack of a lysosome means that cell Y is a plant cell while the presence means that cell X is an animal cell.
Generally, plant cells have larger vacuoles than animal cells.

Eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus, whereas prokaryotic cells do not. In eukaryotes, the nucleus is just one of numerous membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotes, on the other hand, lack organelles that are attached to the membrane.
Plants and fungi are usually filamentous to increase the surface area in which they uptake their food, and this is advantageous as they raise their surface area for sunlight in photosynthesis.
Conversely, animals are usually round to reduce surface area for loss of water and heat. Unlike plant and fungi, most of their food intake is through the mouth hence not affected by surface area.
