Question 1. Make a comparison and write down ways in which plant cells are different from animal cells.

Answer :

Comparison Between Plant Cells & Animal cells
Plant Cells	Animal Cells
Plant cells have one, large central vacuole occupying almost 90% of cell volume. Plant cells have Plastids. Plant cells have Cell wall and a cell membrane. In plant cells, Lysosomes usually not evident. Plant cells generally do not have Cilia. Plant cells have round (irregular) Plant cells have chloroplasts because they make their own food	Animal cells have one or more small vacuoles (much smaller than plant cells). Animal cells do not have Plastids Animal cells have a cell membrane only In Animal cells, Lysosomes occur in cytoplasm. Animal cells have Cilia Animal cells have rectangular (fixed shape) Animal cells don't have chloroplasts
