7

The cell is the most basic unit of life in all known organisms. Integral to its function is its ability to maintain intracellular and extracellular boundaries. Maintaining these boundaries is the function of membranes.

Which of the following choices include cells that have both a cell wall and a membrane?

I. Bacterial cells
II. Fungal cells
III. Animal cells

I and II

CORRECT

I only

0

I and III

0

II and III

0

I, II, and III

0

Explanation

Plants, bacteria, and fungi have both a membrane as well as a cell wall. On the other hand, animal cells have only a membrane.
