what is the major difference between animal cell and plant cell​

Answer:

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.

These are a few differences

Explanation:

I) Plant Cell. 2) Animal Cell

Cell Shape --

I)Square or rectangular in shape. 2)Irregular or round in shape

Cell Wall --

I)Present 2) Absent

Plasma/Cell Membrane--

I)Present 2) Present

Endoplasmic Reticulum--

I)Present 2)Present

Nucleus--

1)Present and lies on one side of the cell 2)Present and lies in the centre of the cell

Lysosomes--

I)Present but are very rare 2) Present Centrosomes--

I) Absent 2) Present

Golgi Apparatus--

I) Present 2)Present

Cytoplasm--

I) Present 2) Present

Ribosomes--

I) Present 2) Present

Plastids--

I)Present 2) Absent

Vacuoles--

I) Few large or a single, centrally positioned vacuole 2) Usually small and numerous

Cilia--

I) Absent 2) Present in most of the animal cells

Mitochondria--

I) Present but fewer in number 2) Present and are numerous

Mode of Nutrition--

I) Primarily autotrophic 2) Heterotrophic

Conclusion--

Both plant and animal cells comprise membrane-bound organelles, such as endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, the nucleus, Golgi apparatus, peroxisomes, lysosomes. They also have similar membranes, such as cytoskeletal elements and cytosol. The plant cell can also be larger than the animal cell. The normal range of the animal cell varies from about 10 – 30 micrometres and that of plant cell range between 10 – 100 micrometres.

Hope it will help you to clear the concept...
