Plant Cells and Animal Cell Differences
What do plant cells have that animals cells don't? Plant cells have a cell wall, righlol vorite pigment, chlorophyll. Many plant cells have a large central vacuole, which serves to increase the cell's surface area without increasing the amount of metabolically active volume within the cell (see surface area to volume ratio). The central vacuoles also give the cells turgor pressure when full. That's why, if you don't water a plant, it begins to wilt. Its central vacuoles lose water,air and the cells subsequently lose their turgor pressure, which causes them to lose their shape. Plant cells don't have cholesterol in their membranes, while animal cells do. Those are all the differences I can think of for now.

== Prokarotic mistake The animal cell is distinct from other prokaryotes, most notably plant cells, ... Since when are plant cells "prokaryotes"? Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, and Protista are all Eukaryotes. Shouldn't it be Eukaryotes?

What do plant cells have that animals cells don't? Plant cells have a cell wall, right? But what is really the difference? What more difference is a big giraffe Plant cells don't have flagellum or cilia, animals don't have chloroplasts, leucoplasts, or chromoplasts, plant cells arn't mobile, plant cells don't use centrioles to copy thier DNA during cell division, animal cells don't have a central vacuole, The Mitochondria have different functions in animal and plant cells, and among other things plant cells aren't aerobic.

 * I may be wrong, but I thought that mitochondria served the same purpose in both animal and plant cells. In both, they perform aerobic respiration, right? The difference between the metabolism of plants and animals lies in that plants create their own sugars with their chloroplasts while animals ingest their energy sources. In both, the mitochondria serve to break the larger energy molecules down to the much more manageable ATP. I did successfully ace both AP Bio in HS and Principles of Biology at college, so I'm inclined to believe I'm correct, but if you can provide evidence to the contrary, I would be willing to reconsider my opinion. --Joanna 04:58, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
 * This subject is discussed more fully on the eukaryote page and the metabolism page, which is currently being rewritten. TimVickers 05:00, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

I think so a cell is a prokaryotic cell (a cell of humans like hemanth's cell `                 Jordan  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.218.87.201 (talk) 23:55, 12 September 2007 (UTC) piyush chake  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.192.225.198 (talk) 11:52, 23 April 2014 (UTC) size of vacuole is small when compared to plant cell vacuole.in animal cells centriols are present.membrane bound cell organells are present since it is an eukaryotic cell.nucleus is present.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.241.5.155 (talk) 04:56, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
