OpenStudy (anonymous):

plant cells have cell walls and plastids and animal cells do not

OpenStudy (lanre):

1)Animal cells do not have rigid cell walls like plant cells. This allows animal cells to form and adopt various shapes. A type of animal cell called the phagocytic cell can even absorb other structures. This ability is not inherent in plant cells 2) unlike animal cells, plant cells have chloroplasts for the utilization of sunlight and this is what also gives plant cells their green color for photosynthesis. 3) Plant cells also contain a larger central vacuole (enclosed by a membrane) as compared to animal cells. 4)In some plants like conifer and flowering plants there is an absence of flagellae and centrioles that are found in animal cells. 5) While plant cells turn carbon dioxide into sugar, it is the animal cells that break the sugar back down to carbon dioxide to make energy.
