In order for offspring to have a dominant mutation, they need at least one copy of the allele from either or both parents. So yes, at least one of the parents must have the mutated gene in order for the offspring to have the mutation.
For your second question, I'm not quite sure what you mean so I will restate two possibilities for what I think you mean:
1. The offspring does not have the mutation if none of the parents have the mutated gene: this is correct.
2. If the mutation is recessive and the child has only one copy of the mutated allele, then the child will not show the mutation. If none of the parents had the mutated gene, then it would not be possible for the child to have the mutated gene or show it.

Name an organelle that you see in the plant cell that you did not see in the animal cell.

For starters, plant cells have a tough Cell Wall made from cellulose, while animal cells only have the thin Cell Membrane. Also, plant cells have Plastids, while animal cells do not.
The primary organelle which is present in plant cells but not in animal cells, however, are the Chloroplasts, which allow plant cells to carry on the natural process of photosynthesis, by which plants make their own food using sunlight, water, and nutrients from the soil.
