* Cell Wall: Animal cells lack a rigid cell wall, which provides structural support and protection in plant cells.
* Chloroplasts: These organelles are responsible for photosynthesis in plants, and they are not found in animal cells.
* Large Central Vacuole: Plant cells have a large central vacuole that stores water and helps maintain cell shape. Animal cells may have smaller vacuoles, but not a dominant central one.
* Plasmodesmata: These are channels that connect adjacent plant cells, allowing for communication and transport. Animal cells do not have plasmodesmata.
In addition to these major differences, there are also some smaller differences in the composition and arrangement of other organelles, such as the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum.
