Organelles present in plant cells and not in animal cells are the plastids (chloroplasts etc.) and the vacuole.
The plastids are necessary for the plant production of energy through the process of photosynthesis and the vacuole serves as a storage for water and metabolites.
The plant cell also has a cell wall that surounds the cell membrane, which the animal cells lack.
