We all know what are plant and animal cells so let us actually differentiate them. Animal cell 1.Animal cell contain more living cell as compared to dead cells. 2.Animal cells require less maintenance. 3. In animals there is more developed and organized organs. Plant cells 1.Plant cell contain more dead cells as compared to living cells. 2.They require more maintenance. 3. After some time there is no growth.

The main structural differences between plant and animal cells are the additional structures found in plant cells. These structures include: chloroplasts, the cell wall, and vacuoles.

 

Chloroplasts

In animal cells, the mitochondria produces the majority of the cells energy from food. Plant cells use sunlight as their energy source; the sunlight must be converted into energy in a process called photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are perform this function.  The energy conversion in plants is a complex set of reactions similar to those performed by mitochondria in animals.

 

The Cell Wall

Another structural difference between in plant cells is the presence of a rigid cell wall surrounding the cell membrane. The tough wall gives added stability and protection to the plant cell.  If you think about it, most animal cells are inside an organism that has either an exoskeleton or an endoskeleton,  built in structure.  Plants don't have a skeleton of any kind so the cells have to perform this. 

Vacuoles

Vacuoles are large, liquid-filled organelles found only in plant cells. Vacuoles can occupy up to 90% of a cell's volume and have a single membrane. Their main function is as a space-filler in the cell, but they can also fill digestive functions and their interiors can be used as storage for nutrients.
