Answer:

1. Major structural differences between a plant and an animal cell include: Plant cells have a cell wall, but animals cells do not. ... Chloroplasts enable plants to perform photosynthesis to make food. Plant cells usually have one or more large vacuole(s), while animal cells have smaller vacuoles, if any are present.

2. Chloroplasts are found in plant cells only because chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which is essential for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll traps sunlight and uses it to prepare food for plants by the process of photosynthesis.

Answer:

even though all living organisms are made of cells that contain similar structures, there are differences between the structures of the cells of plants and animals.

Structures that are common to plant and animal cells are the cell membrane, nucleus, mitochondria, and vacuoles. Structures that are specific to plants are the cell wall and chloroplasts. Major structural differences between a plant and an animal cell include:

Plant cells have a cell wall, but animals cells do not. Cell walls provide support and give shape to plants. Plant cells have chloroplasts, but animal cells do not. Chloroplasts enable plants to perform photosynthesis to make food.

Plant cells usually have one or more large vacuole(s), while animal cells have smaller vacuoles, if any are present. Large vacuoles help provide shape and allow the plant to store water and food for future use. The storage function plays a lesser role in animal cells, therefore the vacuoles are smaller.
