Solution

The structures that are present in plant cells but not in animal cells are the cell wall, chloroplasts, and sap vacuole. So, the correct answer is B. Cell wall, chloroplasts, sap vacuole.

Here's why:

  1. Cell Wall: This is a rigid layer that is located outside the cell membrane and provides support and protection to the cell. Animal cells do not have a cell wall.

  2. Chloroplasts: These are the sites of photosynthesis in plant cells. They contain the pigment chlorophyll which captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts because they do not perform photosynthesis.

  3. Sap Vacuole: This is a large vacuole found in plant cells that stores water, nutrients, and waste products. Animal cells have smaller vacuoles and do not have a central sap vacuole.
