Why do animal cells have lysosomes but plant cells don't?
Actually, plant cells can have lysosomes but they usually don't. Hydrolytic enzymes of plant cells are more often found in the vacuole. Animal cells usually have lysosomes as well, but sometimes they don't.
What cells part do animals cells have that plant cells do not have?
Actually, plant cells have all of the cell organelles which animal cells have, only more. Lysosomes, which are most commonly found in animal cells are not often found in plant cells.
What is the location of lysosomes in a cell?
Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that are found throughout the cytoplasm of animal cells. They are primarily located near the cell's nucleus and are involved in the breakdown of cellular waste and foreign material.
What organelle is rarely found in plant cells?
Organelle rarely found in plant cells are known as lysosomes. These organelles are often in charge for cellular homeostasis in secretion, repairing the plasma membrane, metabolizing energy and for cell signals. These are related to health and diseases within animal cells.
Is mitochondrion found in animal cells or plant cells?
Mitochondrion are found in both plant and animal cells.
What does the plant cell have that the animals cell does not?
The most obvious structure that an animal cell has that plant cells do not are centrioles. Centrioles are structures that are important for DNA segregation when a cell undergoes mitosis. Centrioles are associated with the spindle - the filaments that help pull apart the chromosomes.Additionally, though both plant and animal cells have vacuoles, and lysosomes, animal cells have many more of each. Plant cells often have one large vacuole while animal cells have many small ones. Lysosomes are an important organelle for digestion of waste materials and food. Animal cells tend to have more of these as well.Animal cells can have Flagellum or Cillia, plant cells do not

What is the appearance and location of lysosomes?
Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that appear as small, spherical structures within the cytoplasm of a cell. They are often found clustered near the nucleus or dispersed throughout the cell. Lysosomes contain enzymes that break down cellular waste and foreign particles through a process called hydrolysis.
Do plant cells and animal cells have the same structures?
They have a lot of similarities but there are several distinctions. Animal cells are round, have Lysosomes, small Vacuoles, and all have centrioles. Plant cells are usually a fixed rectangular shape, have a cell well in addition to the membrane, rarely have cilia, have one vacuole that takes up 90% of cell volume and have Plastids.
Which cells are mitochorion found in?
Mitochondria are found in almost all eukaryotic cells, including plant and animal cells. They are often called the powerhouse of the cell because they generate energy through cellular respiration.
What are the structures that contain digestive enzymes to digest and destroy old cells?
Lysosomes. Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells. Their main purpose is to break down polysaccharides into monosaccharides and proteins into amino acids or other substances suitable for incorporation into the cell's metabolism. Lysosomes originate in the Golgi complex, and are often responsible for the death of its host cell. When cells get old (around 9 years) the membrane surrounding the lysosomes weakens and eventually ruptures, releasing its deadly potent digestive enzymes into the cell. These enzymes wreak havoc, destroying the cell from the inside out. However, because of this, when a cell dies, all that is left is, virtually, a stockpile of nutrients and building blocks for the next generation of cells.
What things differ between the plant and animal cells?
Plant Cells have cell walls and Animal Cells don't, Plant cells have chloroplasts where as Animal cells don't, Plant cells are more rectangular and Animal cells are sort of round, Plant cells use chloroplasts for food, Animal cells use mitochondria Plant cells have one large vacuole, where as Animal cells have a lot of small ones, Plant cells lack lysosomes, while Animal cells have them, Plant cells have a central vacuole and Animal cell don't
