5 differences between plants and animals?

Answer 1

1. Plants can count (tree rings)
Animals cannot

2. Animals can make sounds
plants do not

3. You can smoke plants to inhale for medicinal purposes
but you don't smoke animals for such

4. Plants don't have a soul (that we know of)
animals perhaps do.

5. Plants are used as ornaments
hopefully animals are not

Answer 2

PLAnt cell has a rigid cell wall and a cell membrane while animal cell only has a fluid cell membrane plants have chloroplast adn tonoplast and chloropyll which the animal cell lacks Plants donot have centrioles instead of that they have poles for cell division they have protoplast ie Within the cell wall are the living contents of the cell, called the protoplast. These contents are bounded by a cell membrane composed of a phospholipid bi-layer. The protoplast contains the cytoplasm, which in turn contains various membrane-bound organelles and vacuoles and the nucleus, which is the hereditary unit of the cell. they have lartge vacoule they have plastids that are Chloroplasts contain chlorophylls and carotenoid pigments; they are the site of photosynthesis, the process in which light energy from the sun is fixed as chemical energy in the bonds of various carbon compounds. Leucoplasts, which contain no pigments, are involved in the synthesis of starch, oils, and proteins. Chromoplasts manufacture carotenoids.

Answer 3

(1) plant cells are non-motile, whereas animal cells are. Animal cells such as neural crest cells, primordial germ line cells, and blood cells are motile. Plant cells are restricted from moving by their cell walls and the attachments of one cell wall to the adjacent cell wall. However, some lower plants have motile germ cells.

(2) plants are more resistant to aneuploidy and polyploidy (aberrations in the chromosome number and quality) than animals.

(3) plants do not set aside their future reproductive cells, which animals do during their embryonic development. Plants produce their reproductive structures and cells from the vegetative structures, i.e. shoots and shoot meristem

(4) plants undergo a high degree of plasticity, i.e. their cells can give rise to a whole plant. Animal cells, generally, when mature cannot naturally give rise to the whole organism. Though in animals there are adult stem cells, i.e. the hematopoietic stem cells that give rise to a variety of blood cells

(5) plant cells undergo an alternation of generation between the haploid gametophyte and diploid sporophyte. animals, obviously, don't

Answer 4

Animals eat complex foods and break them down, where as plants manufacture complex foods from simpler units. Plants have cell walls rather than membranes. Animals have a nervous system. That's all I can think of really.

You know, apart from that they are very similar. They are both capable of moving, they have a vascular system.

Answer 5

Mode of Nutrition
1. Plants are photoautotrophic
Animals are heterotrophic
Cell structures
2. Cell wall, plastids, central vacuole in plants
No analogous structures in animals
Outer Boundary
3.Cell wall in plants
Plasma membrane in animals
Gas exchange (uptake)
4. CO2 uptake for photosynthesis (O2 also used for respiration) in plants.
O2 for respiration in animals.
Gas Exchange (release)
5.O2 from photosynthesis in plants.
CO2 from respiration in animals.

Answer 6

Animals are able to move themselves, whereas plants are stationary.
Plants have cell walls, animals have cell membranes.
Plants are capable of making their own food, animals are not.
Animal respiration involves using oxygen, plants use carbon dioxide.
Plants can convert sunlight to energy, animals cannot.

Answer 7

plants can live on fresh air and sunshine, animals can't.
animals have to hunt for food plants don't.
animals have to look for a mate, plants don't.
plants produce oxygen and consume carbon dioxide
animals consume oxygen and produce carbon dioxide.
animals move actively, plants move passively

Answer 8

animals have bones plants dont
animals have blood plants dont
animals have a digestive system plants dont
animals have brain plants dont
and last but not least
animals have a heart plants dont

Answer 9

Biggest one: people give off CO2 and take in Oxygen. Plants take in and use Carbon Dioxide and give off Oxygen.

Answer 10

plant have cell wall, they make thier own food, plants are sessile, green cuz they reflect most of the green light, they can be used as medicine.
