What is the difference between plant cells and animal cells?

Present in PLANT cells but NOT animal cells: Cell wall (made of cellulose, provides rigidity), Chloroplasts (for photosynthesis), Central vacuole (large, for storage and maintaining turgor pressure), Plasmodesmata (channels connecting adjacent plant cells). Present in ANIMAL cells but NOT plant cells: Centrioles (for cell division in animals, plants use different structures), Lysosomes are more prominent (though plants have vacuoles). In BOTH: nucleus, mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi body, cell membrane. Memory tip for exam diagrams: Plant = WALL + CHLOROPLAST + BIG VACUOLE. Animal = CENTRIOLE + irregular shape.
