C. Both use mitochondria to release energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles. These organelles are cellular structures, like the mitochondria, nucleus, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, etc. Eukaryotic cells are both plant and animal cells.

Both have a cell wall to give them support. False. While both plant and animal cells have a cell membrane, only plant cells have a cell wall. The cell wall in plant cells will go around the cell membrane, this protects the cell and gives the cell its shape.

Both have a large vacuole to store water. False. Only plant cells have a large vacuole that stores water. Both plant and animal cells have vacuoles, but the vacuole in the animal cell is much smaller than the one in the plant cell.

Both use mitochondria to release energy. True. As I stated before, both plant and animal cells are eukaryotic, which means they contain membrane-bound organelles. Both of them use the mitochondria to release energy.

Both use chloroplasts to store energy. False. Only plant cells have chloroplasts, animal cells do not. These help capture the energy and nutrients from the Sun, helping the plant be energized and grow.
