Alyssa is observing two cells, X and Y. Each cell is from either a plant or an animal. She records some of her observations in a
chart.

Answer:
Cell Y has a larger vacuole than cell X
Explanation:
Cell Y is the plant cell, only plant cells have a tough and rigid cell wall, animal cells do not. The observation that Cell X lacks a cell wall as well as having lysosomes is indication that Cell X is an animal cell. The answer that Cell Y has a larger vacuole is true because plant cells need to store more water and nutrients than animal cells and will have a much larger vacuole.
