Question

DIFFERENT BETWEEN
PLANT CELL AND ANIMAL CELL​

Answer 1

Answer:

A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles. Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. In plants, the cell wall surrounds the cell membrane.

Answer 2

Answer:

Animal cells are also the basic functional unit of life for animals constituting all cell organelles that perform a variety of functions to support the animals’ metabolisms. Plant cells are basic functional units of plants constituting all cell organelles performing a variety of functions that support the plants’ metabolisms.

Size and shape Animal cells are generally smaller than plant cells with their cells ranging from 10-30um in length.

Animal cells shape and sizes vary greatly from irregular shapes to round shapes, most defined by the function they perform.

Plant cells are larger than animal cells with the cell size ranging from 10um-100um in length.

Plant cells similar in shape with most cells being rectangular or cube-shaped.

Cell wall They lack the cell wall but possess a plasma (cell) membrane, which performs the function of support and protection of the cell from external damage.

It also plays a major role in selective permeability allowing in and outflow of nutrient molecules, water, and other cell elements.

They have both a cell wall that is made up of cell membrane and cellulose. The cell wall is, a rigid membrane matrix found on the surface of all plant cells whose primary role is to protect the cell and its content
