Main difference between animal cell and animal cell options growth movement nutrition and respiration
Answers
Answer:
The animal cell is heterotrophic, i.e., cannot synthesize their own food. They have to obtain food from other organisms.
Plant cells possess chloroplast using which they can synthesize their own food material, i.e., they are autotrophic. Therefore, their mode of nutrition differs.
Explanation:
As stated above, both plant and animal cells share a few common cell organelles, as both are eukaryotes. The function of all these organelles is said to be very much similar. However, the major differences between the plant and animal cells, which significantly reflect the difference in the functions of each cell.
The major differences between the plant cell and animal cell are mentioned below:
