The main difference is that plant cells have a cell wall as well as a cell membrane. Animal cells only have a cell membrane.
More Details:
- Plant cells have cell walls, which support a rigid structure. These structures are composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and a variety of other materials. An animal cell does not have this cell wall; With animal cells there is a diversity of shapes, though most are roughly spherical.
- Green Plant cells have chlorophyll, the light-absorbing pigment required for photosynthesis. This pigment, which makes plants appear green, is contained in structures called chloroplasts(or more generally, plastids).
- Similarly, chlorophyll containing plant cells go through both photosynthesis and cellular respiration, while animal cells only go through cellular respiration.
- Plants cells have a large, central vacuole. While animal cells may have one or more small vacuoles, they do not take up the volume that the central vacuole does (up to 90% of the entire cell volume!). The vacuole stores water and ions, and may be used for storage of toxins.
- Animal cells have centrioles, cilia (unicelluar animal cell), and lysosomes.
They have different thing in them like the nucleus there are a number of different things.

∙ 13y agoPlant cells have cell walls (cellulose), sap vacuoles, endoplasmic reticulums & plastids (chloroplats, leucoplasts, etc.) which amimal cells don't have.
Animal cells have centrioles for cell division which plant cells don't have.

∙ 12y agoA notable difference between animal cells and plant cells is that animal cells do not have a cell wall where as plant cells do.
Plant cells have chloroplast for photosynthesis wheras animal cells do not have them.

∙ 9y ago- Plant cells possess cell wall out side plasma membrane while animal cells lack cell wall.
- plant cells lack a centriole , animal cells possess centriole .
- plant cells possess chloroplast , animal cells lack chloroplast .
- plant cell cell shape is mostly orthokidecahedron (14 sided ),animal cells are mostly rounded .
- plant cells are mostly auto trophic ,animal cells are heterotrophic .
- Plant cells possess central vacuole , animal cells have small vacuoles .

∙ 7y agoWhile cell membranes might be around every cell, cell walls made of cellulose are only found around plant cells. Plant cells have a very large central vacuole. While animal cells have several and they are much smaller. Plant cells have organelles called chloroplasts which contains chlorophyll and animal cells do not.

Why differ from a typical animal and plant cells respectively?
animal cell do not have cell wall while plant cells have....
Do most plant cells differ from animal cells because they lack nucleoli?
Plant cells are different from animal cells because of these differences: Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole. Animal cells do not. Both type of cells have nuclei.
Do plants have cell membranes?
Yes, plants have cell membranes. Plant cells differ from animal cells in that plant cells also have cell walls.
What cells would you find inside leaves?
Plant cells, which differ from animal cells because they have cell walls and chloroplast for photosynthesis.
What things differ between the plant and animal cells?
Plant Cells have cell walls and Animal Cells don't, Plant cells have chloroplasts where as Animal cells don't, Plant cells are more rectangular and Animal cells are sort of round, Plant cells use chloroplasts for food, Animal cells use mitochondria Plant cells have one large vacuole, where as Animal cells have a lot of small ones, Plant cells lack lysosomes, while Animal cells have them, Plant cells have a central vacuole and Animal cell don't

In how many ways are plant and animal cells different?
There are some ways in which plant cells and animal cells differ. Plant cells contain a cell wall whereas animals cells only have a cell membrane. Plant cells contain chloroplasts for photosynthesis whereas animal cells do not. Plant cells have a large central vacuole for water storage whereas animal cells do not. Plant cells do not have lysosomes whereas animal cells do.
How does the shape of a plant cell differ from that animal cell?
Plant cells are generally more rectangular in shape, where as animal cells are usually more round
Do plant and animal cells have different organelles?
Yes, they differ. Most notably, plant cells have cell walls and chloroplast, which animals cells lack.
Do plants have cell membranes?
Yes, plants have cell membranes. Plant cells differ from animal cells in that plant cells also have cell walls.
How is a plant cell differ from a real cell?
A plant cell has a cell wall and chloroplasts. Animal cells do not
How do the vacuoles in animal cell differ from those in plant cells?
Vacuoles in a plant cell are bigger than animal cell vacuoles. In fact, some animal cells don't even have vacuoles.
How are plant cell differ from animal?
Well, since plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts, the animal cell does not. The animal cell has centrioles and lysosomes, while a plant cell does not.
