  1. Plant can't take their cell with them while animal can rome around with their cell


  2. Animal cells have buttons that they can push with their paws.

  3. Plant cells have a stucture called a cell wall that gives it rigidity ... animal cells do not have such a structure.

  4. Animal cell

    An animal cell is a form of eukaryotic cell that makes up many tissues in animals. The animal cell is distinct from other eukaryotes, most notably plant cells, as they lack cell walls and chloroplasts, and they have smaller vacuoles. Due to the lack of a rigid cell wall, animal cells can adopt a variety of shapes, and a phagocytic cell can even engulf other structures.

    Plant cell

    Plant cells are quite different from the cells of the other eukaryotic organisms. Their distinctive features are:

        * A large central vacuole (enclosed by a membrane, the tonoplast), which maintains the cell's turgor and controls movement of molecules between the cytosol and sap

        * A primary cell wall containing cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin, deposited by the protoplast on the outside of the cell membrane; this contrasts with the cell walls of fungi, which contain chitin, and the cell envelopes of prokaryotes, in which peptidoglycans are the main structural molecules

        * The plasmodesmata, linking pores in the cell wall that allow each plant cell to communicate with other adjacent cells; this is different from the functionally analogous system of gap junctions between animal cells.

        * Plastids, especially chloroplasts that contain chlorophyll, the pigment that gives plants their green color and allows them to perform photosynthesis

        * Higher plants, including conifers and flowering plants (Angiospermae) lack the flagellae and centrioles that are present in animal cells.

  5. ones from an animal ones from a plant

    :) lol

  6. Basically what faiona2003 said, simply put, animal cells have a cell membrane whereas plant cells have cell walls
