What is the difference between and plant and animals?

Answer 1

both have different types of cells, there are animal cells and there are plant cells, but both are living, breathing organisms

Answer 2

Plants generally are rooted in one place an do not move on their own (locomotion), whereas most animals have the ability to move fairly freely.

Plants contain chlorophyll and can make their own food, this is called Photosynthesis. Animals cannot make their own food and are dependent on plants and other animals for food.

Plants give off oxygen and take in carbon dioxide given off by animals. Animals give off carbon dioxide which plants need to make food and take in oxygen which they need to breathe.

Plants cells have cell walls and other structures differ from those of animals. Animal cells do not have cell walls and have different structures than plant cells

Plants have either no or very basic ability to sense. Animals have a much more highly developed sensory and nervous system. Animals have and use intelligence, plants do not.

Plants have a very rudimentary circulatory system based on pressure and potential differences; the majority of "higher" animals have closed circulatory systems.

Answer 3

Plants have cell walls and are usually autotrophs. Animals do not have cell walls and are usually heterotrophs.
The most important difference is on the cellular level. Plants have cell walls; animals don't. Fungi don't have cell walls, either, so from a cellular perspective mushrooms are more like people than trees are.

Answer 4

Plants are living organisms that have the ability to absorb water and inorganic substances through roots and convert it into food using chlorophyll.

Animals are also living organisms that can move and function, with some getting either energy from plants.

Answer 5

Plants are autotrophic organisms that make their own food through photosynthesis, while animals are heterotrophic organisms that obtain their food by consuming other organisms. Plants have cell walls made of cellulose, while animals do not. Additionally, plants typically do not have the ability to move from place to place, while animals can move.
