Plants and Animals are different in several different ways. Their structural complexities are almost completely opposite in terms of the roles that their “organs” have. Plants are more independent than animals; animals tend to be dependent on other aspects of life to survive. From internal cells to external mobility and appearance, plants cells having cell walls and animal cells don’t. Plants and animals are very different in many ways.
Most animals have the ability to move around whether it be flying, crawling or walking. As a result of animals having mobility, it makes their lives less complicated in a way. Animals can migrate if food gets scares; their lives are at risk or weather changes. On the other hand, plants are rooted into the soil so they cannot move internally. However, plants do not suffer because they are independent on their internal components and the sun. Plants have the ability to stay in one area and live a full life just as mobile animals do.
Animals depend on their environment to eat. If there is no food source available then animals must migrate onto another area or they will starve and die. Plants make their own food through a process called photosynthesis that takes place in the leaves. The sun and plants work together to produce oxygen and take in carbon dioxide. Coincidently animals take in oxygen and gives off carbon dioxide. Plants have the longer end of the stick because as long as the sun is shining, plants will always be existent but if there are no plants animals will not be able to survive.
Animals reproduce by having sex. Once the sperm meets the egg animals can have from one to many offspring. Animals mate with each other based on mating calls, vibrant colors, size and several other physical traits. In contrast, Plants have the ability to both mate with other plants and mate with their selves. Plants can reproduce by pollination where pollen from one plant is moved to another by wind, animals or water. Some animals have

    Plant Cells have cell walls, which makes them appear rectangular or square in shape,, plant cells have chlorophyll the light absorbing pigment required for photosynthesis. First, animal cells don't have central vacuoles or cell walls. Cell Walls are composed of cellulose, hemicellulose and other material Animal cells do not have cell walls they only have a cell membrane, this makes their shape round/fluid they have lysosones which plants do not, versus the plant cell which is more angular/rigid. Plant cells have chloroplasts to convert light into energy, animals do not. Animal cells contain centriole, lysosome, and flagellum, where as most plant cells do not. Both contain DNA unique to their species or type of plant.…

    Man has come a long way from the caveman days and so has our understanding of the world around us. Humans have always used plants and animals in one capacity or another, yet when a person thinks of the phrase 'plants and animals', they automatically begin thinking about the differences between the two. Well I say that plants and animals have been known far too long for their differences. And as different as they seem, plants and animals are very similar in the following areas: reproduction, human uses, and the requirement of water. Even though plants and animals can be distinguished from one another, evolution has bridged the gap between the two more than most people realize.…

    Reproduction was an immediate issue because the plants could not carry out future generations without an aquatic environment for reproduction. They developed flowers, which have distinct and pleasurable shapes, colors, smells, chemicals, and nectar to attract insects and birds, which help in pollination. Males developed microspores, which is pollen, and a reduced gametophytes. The pollen grain became very light weighted and easily blown about in order to increase motility. It is now possible for pollination to occur by wind, insects. In fact, many plants can even self-pollinate.…
