Alyssa is observing two cells, x and y. Each cell is from Either a plant or an animal. She records someof her observations in a chart. Which additional observation will alyssa most likely make?

Based on the provided information, the most likely additional observation Alyssa will make is Cell Y has a larger vacuole than Cell X.

The presence of Lysosomes in Cell X suggests it's an animal cell, as plant cells typically lack them. Cell wall absence in both cells points towards them being animal cells, as plant cells have cell walls.

Endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, and nucleus and are present in both cells, as they are essential components of all eukaryotic cells, including both plant and animal cells. Animal cells typically have smaller vacuoles compared to plant cells. Since Cell X already has features suggesting it's an animal cell, it's more likely to have a smaller vacuole than Cell Y.

Answer:

They differ in cell wall, chloroplast and many other ways.

Explanation:

Assume X-cell as plant cell, and Y-cell as animal cell.

So X may differ from Y in various ways:

X cell;

Plant cells are easier to because

1. They have a rigid cell wall, outside the cell membrane.

2. They usually have one vacuole which is very large in size.

3. They have organelles called chloroplasts, which contain a green pigment

called chlorophyll.

Y Cell:

1. Animal cells lacks cell wall.

2. Animal cells may contain more than one vacuole, these vacuoles are

smaller than a plant cell's vacuoles

3. These cells also lack chloroplast.
