Plant cells usually have three parts which are not present in human or animal cells: 1) A cell wall; this is a thick layer around the outside of the plant cell made of a substance called cellulose. The job of the cell wall is to strengthen and support the cell. 2) A central vacuole; this is a space in the centre of the cell filled with a watery solution called cell sap. The sap contains salts, sugars, amino acids and wastes. As well as storing these substances the vacuole helps to support the cell. 3) Chloroplasts; these are structures containing the green pigment called chlorophyll, which traps sunlight. Their job is to make food for the plant by the process of photosynthesis.

No, centrioles are typically not found in plant cells. Plant cells lack centrioles and instead organize their microtubules using structures known as microtubule organizing centers. These structures serve similar functions to centrioles in animal cells but have a different form.
Dividing plant cells lack centrioles, which are organelles involved in organizing and segregating chromosomes during cell division. Plant cells instead rely on the formation of a preprophase band to assist in the orientation of the cell division plane.
Animal cells and plant cells have several key differences in their structures. Plant cells have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose, while animal cells do not. Plant cells also have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, which animal cells lack. Plant cells have a large central vacuole for storage, while animal cells have smaller vacuoles. Studying plant cell structures helps us understand their unique characteristics, such as their ability to produce energy through photosynthesis and their structural support provided by the cell wall.
A plant cell has a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole, which are structures not found in animal cells. These unique features allow plant cells to perform functions like photosynthesis and maintaining turgor pressure.
The animals cells do not have a cell wall whereas plant cells do. The plant cells have a large vacuole with cell sap whereas animal cells have many small vacuoles with no cell sap. The plant cells have chloroplast whereas animal cells do not.

Yes, plant cells lack centrioles, which are organelles that help organize microtubules during cell division in animal cells. Instead, plant cells rely on other structures like the spindle poles to assist in this process.

None. They have the same type of cells as humans (eukaryotic) However, compared to a plant cell, they lack a cell wall, chloroplasts, large central ventricle

The two organelles that plant cells have that animal cells lack are: 1. Cell wall 2. Vacuole.
There are many different kinds of cells. The two overarching classifications are Prokaryotic cells (bacteria and other cells that lack a nucleus) and Eukaryotic (cells that do have a nucleus and a cell membrane). Eukaryotic can be further divided into categories such as plant and animal cells where there are more differences. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts and a large vacuole whereas animal cells only have small vacuoles. There is also cell differentiation in which cells have different structures to complement their different functions. Blood cells have different structures to nerve cells in humans, and liver cells contain massive amounts of ribosomes so they can create proteins.
The animals cells do not have a cell wall whereas plant cells do. The plant cells have a large vacuole with cell sap whereas animal cells have many small vacuoles with no cell sap. The plant cells have chloroplast whereas animal cells do not.
Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts for photosynthesis, and a large central vacuole, while animal cells lack these structures. Animal cells have centrioles, which aid in cell division, while plant cells do not have them. Additionally, plant cells are usually larger and have a more defined rectangular shape compared to the rounder shape of animal cells.
