Lanthanides have 6 electron shells. Actinides have 7 electron shells.
The f-block elements in period 7 are known as the actinides.

The actinide series is a group of elements in the periodic table that includes actinium, thorium, uranium, and all elements from atomic number 89 (actinium) to 103 (lawrencium). These elements are all radioactive and have similar chemical properties.
Plutonium is in the family of actinides, period 7.
Rare Earth elements or lanthanides are placed in the period 6 of the periodic table of Mendeleev. Actinoids are placed in the period 7 of the periodic table of Mendeleev.
The f-block elements in period 7 are known as the actinides.
Lanthanides and Actinides are placed separately as the properties of these elements is quite different from the elements in periodic table.
There are seven periods on the periodic table. The lanthanides are in period 6, and the actinides are in period 7.
The lanthanides generally have higher densities than the actinides. This is because lanthanides are located in period 6 of the periodic table, where atomic size decreases from left to right, leading to higher densities. In contrast, actinides are located in period 7, where atomic size is larger and densities are lower on average.
The first period is at the top of the table. It consists of hydrogen and helium. The bottom period is period 7.

They are in the (vertical) columns, numbered from 1 to 18 (or, from period 4 onwards, nr.1 to 8 and extra groups 2A to 7A), plus lanthanides (in period 6) and actinides (in period 7).
Actinides (7)
Period 7 (it is a member of actinides).
Plutonium is in the family of actinides, period 7.
