and chloroplasts and animal cells do not.

Answer:

This is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Animals get sugar from the food they eat, they do not need chloroplasts: just mitochondria. Both plant and animal cells have vacuoles. The plant has the largest vacuole than animal cells because in plant cells the larger central vacuole performs two functions, one is to store water and the other is to help the plant remain upright. A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. Animals are motile but plants and stiff. Cell walls make plants stiff so they cannot move.Animals don't have cell walls so they can move. Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts; cell walls allow plants to have strong, upright structures; and vacuoles help regulate how cells handle water and storage of other molecules.
