Write down the differences between plant cell and animal cell.

Here’s a summary of the differences between plant cells and animal cells:

1. Cell Wall:
   • Plant Cell: Has a rigid cell wall made of cellulose for structural support and protection.
   • Animal Cell: Lacks a cell wall; only has a flexible plasma membrane.
2. Chloroplasts:
   • Plant Cell: Contains chloroplasts, which enable photosynthesis to produce food.
   • Animal Cell: Does not have chloroplasts; obtains nutrients through consumption.
3. Vacuoles:
   • Plant Cell: Has a large central vacuole that stores nutrients, waste products, and maintains cell turgor.
   • Animal Cell: Contains smaller, more temporary vacuoles.
4. Shape:
   • Plant Cell: Generally has a fixed, rectangular shape due to the cell wall.
   • Animal Cell: Typically has an irregular, round shape.
5. Lysosomes:
   • Plant Cell: Lysosomes are less common or less prominent.
   • Animal Cell: Contains lysosomes which are involved in digestion and waste removal.
6. Centrioles:
   • Plant Cell: Generally lacks centrioles, which are involved in cell division.
   • Animal Cell: Contains centrioles, which help in organizing microtubules during cell division.
