In plant cells, by-products of the metabolic pathways are stored in _____________(a) vacuole(b) mitochondrion(c) chloroplast(d) nucleus |
|
Answer» The correct choice is (a) vacuole To explain I would say: Vacuoles store many toxic compounds of the cell including by-products of metabolic pathways. Unlike animal cells, plant cells isolate the toxic by-products (by storing them in the vacuole) from the rest of the cell rather than discharging them. |
