Animal bodies have skeletons or other means of providing
structural support.
is that A B C or D?
D
can you explain why d?
D is the correct answer because animals have external structures like skeletons or other means of providing structural support, such as muscles and connective tissues. These external structures serve the same purpose as the central vacuole in plant cells, which is to provide rigidity and support to the cell or organism. Animals do not need a central vacuole because their structural support is provided by these external structures instead.
