TASK 1Comparison between animal and plant cellThe similarities and differences between plant and animal cells are as follows: Similarities: The DNA of both the cells is housed in protective nucleus thus they are eukaryotic cells. Plant and animal cells have protecting cells. For instance in animals immunity system ispresent while various plants shows different mechanisms such as physical barriers orcolouring pattern to respond for immunity (Jimenez, Chen and Alto, 2016). These cells are characterised by the cell membrane which helps in the regulation ofsubstances through cellular structure. Organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondrion and nucleus are present in boththe structures. Both plant and animal cells have double stranded DNA. Difference: The plant cell is surrounded by the rigid cellular wall while animal cell is surrounded bythe squishy membrane. The rigid and inflexible cell wall prohibits the motion of plants attheir own. The plant cells are characterised by the plastids such as chloroplast which gives themability to produce their food. This organelles is not present in animal cells. The centrioles and centrosomes which plays important role in cell division are present inonly animal cells. The organelle Lysosomes are also absent in plants. This element consist of digestiveenzymes . However in plants certain cells contain vacuole which have similar functionalproperties as provided by Lysosome (Pavlović and Radotić, 2017). The absence of cell wall in animal cells makes them burst when they are placed in ahypertonic solution. 1
