A Jet plane has no propellers. (Actually, there are 'prop-jets' on which propellers are powered by jet engines.)
There is basically no difference in the airplane. The engines are different and sometimes the design of the wings or fuselage is different to allow for the different type engines. For example, early single-engine jets had their engines embedded within the fuselage so the air flow entered the nose or just under the wings and exited the tail after being ignited.
Another difference is that Jet aircraft usually fly faster than propellor. The wings on propellor a/c are usually straight whereas the wings of jets are slanted aft. This improves aerodynamics when the jet approaches the speed of sound.

What is the difference between high bypass and low bypass turbofan?
The difference between the low and high bypass turbofans is simply in the amount of air which goes into the engine versus the remainder that goes around (bypasses) the engine. In high bypass engines ( an engine on any large commercial jet) only 20% around 20% of air goes into the engine with 80% bypassing it. (The 80% generates most of the engine thrust) In low bypass engines, this ratio is much lower
What is difference between turning machine and lathe machine?
There is no difference between a turning machine and a lathe. They are two names for the same kind of machine
What is the difference between airbus and jet plane?

What is the Difference between a jet plane and aeroplane?
Aeroplane is a general term for any type of flying aircraft. A jet plane is one that is powered by jet engines.
What is the difference between a jet plane and a propeller?
A jet plane uses a jet engine's thrust for propulsion. A propeller is a set of blades somewhat like a big fan that blows air to the back of the plane for thrust instead of using a jet engine for the thrust to move the plane forward.
What is the diffence between an air bus and a jet plane?
An Airbus is a jet plane manufactured by Airbus.

Difference Between on and in. exp i was on the plane or in the plane?
The difference between on and in is that if you're on a plane you're on the roof of the plane and if you're in a plane you're sitting inside it.
How many hours is 2976 miles?
Impossible to answer without knowing an average speed. Big difference between traveling by car and traveling by jet plane.
What is the difference between the way a helicopter flies and the way a jet engine plane fies?
A helicopter is rather designed for hovering than fast moving. That is why they are used in rescuing and other purposes. A jet engine plane moves fast in the forward direction and they are designed for fast transport.
What is jet plane?
A jet plane is any aircraft powered by jet engines.
What is the difference between an airplane and a plane?
there is no difference
