Plants are different from animals because plants get their nutrients from the sun so that they can do the precoss of photosynthesis. Animals get their nutrients from eating other animals or plants. Also animals' cells are rounded shapes and plants' cells are rectangular. Animals also dont have chlorophyll while plants do. Animals take in oxygen released by plants and release carbon dioxide which is taken in by plants. Animals use their skeletal system for support and plants use fibers and turgor for support.

Plants have a cell wall composed of cellulose and a cell membrane. Animals only have a cell membrane.
I don't have all the answers, but for starters, I know animals require sustenance by eating and digesting food where as plants absorb nutrients through their roots. Animals need to procreate to develop offspring and plants may either spawn seedlings or be carried away by the ecosystem (weather, bees, water, etc.) to grow elsewhere. Some plants bear fruit, most absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. Animals do not contribute to the ecosystem in this way.

Plants are autotrophs and have cell walls made out of cellulose.

Animals are heterotrophs and have no cell walls.
