Answer:

B A plant cell can contain both chlorophyll and a nucleus.

Step-by-step explanation:

All plants are eukaryotic organisms i.e the cells of all plants possess a membrane-bound nucleus that houses their genetic material (DNA). In addition to this, most plant cells also contain a unique organelle called CHLOROPLAST, which they use to capture the energy from sunlight in order to perform a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

According to this question, plant cells can contain both chlorophyll and a nucleus. They can possess chlorophyll because chlorophyll is a pigment in their chloroplast that captures the light energy.
