Question

What are three structures found in a plant cell that are not found in an animal cell? 

Answer 1

Hey Feleia!

Plant cells and animal cells are very similar, yet, they differ in several ways.

Plant cells have cell walls, which help with the structure of the cell and prevent them from bursting, as they absorb a lot of water. Animal cells do not have cell ways.

Plant cells also have chloroplasts, where chlorophyll is located. This is what makes most plants green. This is also how photosynthesis occurs. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts or chlorophyll.

The last structure is one that animals technically can have, but some don't. Plants have large vacuoles, used for storing materials and molecules. Animals can have vacuoles, but they are typically very small in comparison to plants.

Hope this helps!
