mainly plant cells, Fungi cells, and bacteria cells.
If you wish to tell here , then automatic best answer, but A link is just as nice! (I'm not completely lazy) =3 kitty love to you all!

Plant cells and fungi cells are eukaryotic, which means that they have a nucleus. Bacteria cells are prokaryotic, meaning that they don't have a nucleus. In the plant and fungus cells, the DNA is in the nucleus. In the bacteria cell, it is simply arranged in a circle. Bacteria cells are also much smaller than plant and fungi cells.
Plant cells and bacteria cells have a cell wall (animal cells don't), and many types of fungal cells have cell walls, but not all. The cell wall in the plant cell is made from cellulose, in the fungus cell it's made of chitin (the same material that makes up insect exoskeletons!), and in the bacteria cell it's made of peptidoglycan (and to think, I never thought I'd use that knowledge!) LOL
The plant and fungus cells will have a cytoskeleton, a system of protein filaments that gives the cell its structure and helps transport materials within the cell.
Plants and fungi have membrane-bound organelles in their cells, while bacteria do not. That means that the bacteria cell will not have an endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, or mitochondria - plants and fungi have these things.
Plants have the ability to photosynthesize (make food from light, water, and CO2), and their cells have chloroplasts to help them do that. Fungal cells do not have chloroplasts. Some types of bacteria can photosynthesize, but their cells do not have chloroplasts. The needed chemicals for photosynthesis are in their cell membranes.
Hope that helps.

do you mean specific differences between the those types of cells, or the differences between any 2 different cells? plant cells have cell walls and permentant vacuoles; many of them also contain chloroplasts. bacteria are single celled organisms and the cells an exist and function properly on their own, they are prokaryotic and have no nucleus( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterium ). fungi cells i don't know much about, but this page should help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fungi look under the structure part of the page.
a general difference between the 3 would be that plant cells are eukaryotic, bacteria cells are prokaryotic and fungai cells are mostly hyphae. that is pretty much the base difference between them.

The cells of plants, protists, and fungi are surrounded by a cell wall composed mostly of the carbohydrate cellulose; the cell wall helps these cells maintain their shape. Animal cells lack a cell wall but instead have a cytoskeleton, a network of long fibrous protein strands that attach to the inner surface of the plasma membrane and help them maintain shape.

every cell is different the cells range from sperm to red blood cells. they have different characteristics such as the sperm cell is made of glucose so it has short burst of energy to get to the egg and also its tail.

Every cells have its definate function,,,,,,,,,,,, hence every cells is have specific charactaristics to follow their functions
