Plant and Animal Cell Similarities and Differences
Storyboard Text
- Cells are the basic unit of life. Plants and animals are composed of millions of cells.
- Cells provide structure for the body to take nutrients from food and convert it into energy and carry out specialized functions.
- Plant and Animal Cells
- Aren't they all the same?
- In fact Animal cells are the basic unit of life in organisms of the kingdom Animalia. They are eukaryotic cells, meaning that they have a true nucleus and specialized structures called organelles that carry out different functions.
- Animal Cell
- No Ronnie! Everything is not the same.
- Todays lesson is about animals cells and plant cells!
- Animal cells do not have a cell wall
- What are the differences?
- Animals Cells have to find their own food
- Most animal cells are round whereas most plant cells are rectangular
- Well lets take a look.
- Animal Cells can't synthesis nutrients

- Plant cells are eukaryotic cells or cells with a membrane-bound nucleus. A plant cell also contains structures not found in an animal cell. Some of these include a cell wall, a large vacuole, and plastids. Plastids, such as chloroplasts, assist in storing and harvesting needed substances for the plant.
- Yes there are some similarities.
- Plant Cell
- Well it kinda look the same as the animal cell.
- Animal Cell
- Here are the plant cell differences from the animal cells
- Plant cells have a cell wall for protection and structure
- Great question!It's a jelly like substance. It allows plants to capture the energy of the sun in energy rich molecules; cell walls allow plants to have rigid structures. All these differences are examples of organelles; small objects that perform a specific job within the cell
- Plant cells have larger vacuoles for food and water storage
- What's a chloroplast?
- They have chloroplasts where photosynthesis happens and energy is created
- Here are the similarities
- Animal cell differences
- Both have vacuoles
- They both are eukaryotic; they have DNA inside a nucleus
- both have a endoplasmic reticulum
- Now since we have gone over differences and similarities who's ready for a quiz?
- Both have mitochondria, ribosomes, Lysosomes and golgi apparatus
- Oh great.... Can we use are notes?
