    Study Notes

    Animal vs. Plant Cells

    • Animal cells have an irregular shape while plant cells have a definite rectangular shape.
    • Animal cells lack a cell wall while plant cells have a cell wall.
    • Plant cells have chloroplasts, which allow them to perform photosynthesis. Animal cells lack chloroplasts.
    • Plant cells have a large central vacuole, while animal cells have small or absent vacuoles.
    • Both animal and plant cells have a nucleus, ribosomes, and mitochondria.
    • Animal cells possess lysosomes, which are typically absent in plant cells.

    Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells

    • Prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria, lack a nucleus.
    • Eukaryotic cells, such as animal and plant cells, have a nucleus that encloses the DNA.
