List the differences between plant cells and animal cells based on the following characteristics. Characteristics Plant cells Animal cells Cell size Plastid Lysosome Centrosome and centriole

Characteristics Plant cells Animal cells Cell size Cells are generally small in size. Cells are generally large in size. Plastid Present Absent Lysosome Degrade the cell if injured or become old. Dispose of garbage or waste in the animal cell. Centrosome and centriole Absent Present Plastid: It is a double-membrane organelle that is found in the cells of plants and algae. They contain chlorophyll that absorbs sunlight for photosynthesis, a process for making food in plants. Lysosome: It is a membrane-bound cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes. It breaks down excess or worn-out cell parts. Centrosome: It is a cellular structure involved in the process of cell division.
