Answer: Differences between animal and plant cells :

Animal cell :-

  1. Animal cells are generally small in size.
  2. Cell wall is absent.
  3. Except the protozoan Euglena, no animal cell possesses plastids.
  4. Vacuoles in animal cells are many, small and temporary.
  5. Animal cells have a single highly complex and prominent Golgi apparatus.
  6. Animal cells have centrosome and centrioles.

Plant cell :-

  1. Plant cells are larger than animal cells.
  2. The plasma membrane of plant cells is surrounded by a rigid cell wall of cellulose.
  3. Plastids are present.
  4. Most mature plant cells have a permanent and large central sap vacuole.
  5. Plant cells have many simpler units of Golgi apparatus, called dictyosomes.
  6. Plant cells lack centrosome and centrioles.

Answer:

ANIMAL CELL

Animal cells are generally small in size.

They don't have a cell wall

Except the protozoan Euglena, no animal cell possesses plastids.

Vacuoles in animal cells are many, small and temporary.

Animal cells have a single highly complex and prominent Golgi apparatus.

Animal cells have centrosome and centrioles.

PLANT CELL

Plant cells are larger than animal cells.

The plasma membrane of plant cells is surrounded by a rigid cell wall of cellulose.

They have Plastids

Most mature plant cells have a permanent and large central sap vacuole.

Plant cells have many simpler units of Golgi apparatus, called dictyosomes.

Plant cells lack centrosome and centrioles.

Hope this helps!
