Answer 1

- Animal cells are eukaryotic cells that lack a cell wall and chloroplasts, while plant cells are also eukaryotic cells but have a rigid cell wall and chloroplasts.
- Both animal and plant cells have a nucleus which contains the genetic material, but plant cells also have larger vacuoles while animal cells have smaller vacuoles or none at all.
- Plant cells can undergo photosynthesis due to the presence of chloroplasts, which enables them to convert sunlight into energy, whereas animal cells obtain energy through other means such as respiration.
