Yes. Both plant and animal cells move with little string-like "tails" called flagellum. With these, they move just like a shark. They whip it from side to side to move.

Why are animal cells different from plant cells?

a plant cell has a cell wall and an animal cell doesn't if it did the animal wouldn't be able to move.


Which structure are common to both plant cells and animal cells?

Both plant nd animal cells have:Cell surface membraneCytoplasmNucleus(GCSE and above: mitochondrion)(ribosomes, represented as small dots)Hope this helps :)


Why do plant cells have cell walls and animal cell dont?

Plant cells have cell walls because they need the extra protection. This is because plant cells cannot move out of the way of danger like animals can.


Is The high concentration of mineral ions in the plant cells causes water molecules to move into the plant by diffusion?

Yes, high concentrations of mineral ions in plant cells create an osmotic gradient, causing water molecules to move into the plant cells by osmosis. This helps maintain turgor pressure, which is essential for plant cell structure and function.


What dose an animal cell have that a plant cell dose not have?

An animal cell actually has less things than plant cells. Plant cells have cell walls used to hold the cells up and keep them sturdy while animal cells do not because it would make animals too stiff to move. Plant cells have the cell walls because they need to stand up and don't need to move.

Does a plant cell move?

well plant cells do not move. however some unicellular plants, such as chlamydomonas do move.but now they are regarded as protists not plants.


What are the communications channels that exists in cell walls that enable plant cells to interact with one another?

Plasmodesmata are membrane-lined channels between plant cells that allow materials to move among cells, but communications occur via signalling hormones that may or may not move through plasmodesmata. Some do, and others move through the matrix of cell walls that lies between the individual cells in the plant.


Why differ from a typical animal and plant cells respectively?

Animal cells do not have a cell wall, while plant cells do. Plant cells typically have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, while animal cells do not. Animal cells can move and change shape more easily due to their flexible membrane, while plant cells are typically more rigid due to their cell wall.


Do animal cells need more mitochondrion than plant cells?

Your muscle certainly do. You move, that is you are motile. Plants move very little and are called sessile.


Do plant cells use more energy or animal cells?

Animal cells use more energy because unlike plant cells, animal cells can move at any speed and it also runs and walk to retrieve food. This puts more strain on the animal cells than on the plant cell :)
