-Plant cells have cell walls to keep the cell rigid, but animal cells don't

-Plant cells have a large permanent vacuole, but animal cells don't. Animal cells will either have a small vacuole or none at all.

-Plant cells have chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll, so photosynthesis can take place. Animal cells don't need to photosynthesise and therefore do not need chloroplasts.

-Animal cells contain flagella, but in plant cells flagella is only found in gametes(sex cells)
