A Galvanic cell, or Voltaic cell, named after Luigi Galvani, or Alessandro Volta respectively, is an electrochemical cell that derives electrical energy from spontaneous redox reaction taking place within the cell. It generally consists of two different metals connected by a salt bridge, or individual half-cells separated by a porous membrane.
Volta was the inventor of the voltaic pile, the first electrical battery. In common usage, the word "battery" has come to include a single Galvanic cell, but a battery properly consists of multiple

Is galvanic cell and voltaic cell same?
Yes
What is the difference between a galvanic cell and a voltaic cell?
A voltaic battery is also known as a voltaic pile, which is a set (or pile) of galvanic cells linked together in series to create a larger voltage than could be generated by a single galvanic cell. Therefore a voltaic cell would simply be one element of the pile which is also one galvanic cell.
How is an electrolytic cell different from a galvanic cell?
Electrons flow in the opposite direction.
How can a galvanic cell become electrolytic cell?
The Redox Reaction Is Reversed
Which electrode in the anode is galvanic cell?
Zinc is the anode.
Is galvanic cell and voltaic cell same?
Yes
