All living plant cells contain chlorophyll.

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The statement 'All living plant cells contain chlorophyll' is false. Chlorophyll is primarily found in chloroplasts,which are present in green plant cells (like those in leaves). However,non-green plant cells,such as those in roots,tubers,and some parts of the stem,do not contain chlorophyll and are therefore incapable of photosynthesis. Prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus (Option $A$ is true). Cell walls in plants are primarily made of cellulose (Option $C$ is true). Mitochondria are the sites of aerobic respiration (Option $D$ is true).
