bruh
did you mean bro ;)
The correct statement is that both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes.
The correct statement is: Both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes.
To determine the correct statement about plasma membranes, we need to have some knowledge about cell structures. A plasma membrane, also known as a cell membrane, is a thin, flexible layer that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell. Its main function is to regulate the movement of molecules in and out of the cell.
First, let's examine the option "Animal cells have cell membranes instead of plasma membranes." This statement is incorrect because animal cells do have plasma membranes. In fact, all cells, including animal cells, have plasma membranes.
Next, we have the option "Plant cells have cell walls instead of plasma membranes." This statement is also incorrect. While plant cells do have cell walls, they also have plasma membranes. The cell wall is a rigid layer that lies outside the plasma membrane and provides structural support to the cell.
The option "Plant cells have rigid plasma membranes" is incorrect because plant cells actually have flexible plasma membranes. The flexibility of the plasma membrane allows the cell to change its shape, adapt to different environments, and perform various functions.
Therefore, the correct statement is "Both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes." Both plant and animal cells have plasma membranes that are thin and flexible, enabling them to control the movement of substances into and out of the cell.
