 differentiate between plant cell and animal cell.

 Plant cells have a cell wall, which is made of cellulose,a non living substance.

Cell wall is absent in Animal cell. But in animal Cells,centrosome is present,which is absent in plant cells.

Plant cells usually contain plastids, animal cells do not.

vacuoles are prominent in plantcells,but in animal cells, they are either absent or very small and temporary.

 plant cells larger than animal cellsand have more distinct outlines.

cytoplasm is not so dense in plant cells but very dense in animal cells

Plant Cells. Structurally, plant and animal cells are very similar because they are both eukaryotic cells. ... Beyond size, the main structural differences between plant and animal cells lie in a few additional structures found in plant cells. These structures include: chloroplasts, the cell wall, and vacuoles

  • Animal cell generally smaller in size.                                                              
  • cell wall absent.
  • except the protozoan Euglena, no animal cell possesses plastids
  • vacoules in animal cells are many , small and temporary.
  • Animal cells have centrosome and centrioles.
  •  
  • Plant cell are larger than animal cell.
  • The plasma membrane of plant cells is surrounded by a rigid cell wall of cellulose..
  • plastids are present.
  • most mature plant cells have a permanent and large central sap vacoule.
  • plant cell lack centrosome and centrioles.

Plants:

  • Cell wall: The plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose outside the plasma membrane
  • Chloroplast: Plants are green in colour due to the presence of chlorophyll in the chloroplast.
  • Vacuoles: Plant cells have large vacuoles filled with sap.
  • Centrosome: Centrosome with centrioles absent.

Animals:

  • The cell wall is absent and only the plasma membrane is present.
  • Chloroplasts are absent in animal cells. Animals have no chlorophyll.
  • Vacuoles are absent.
  • Centrioles with centrioles present.
