Plant cells and animal cells have some things in common and some differences. 


Differences: Plant cells have centrioles or intermediate filaments.  They also have a more square shape and contain chloroplasts. Plants have a cell wall that is made up of fibrils of cellulose.  Plants and animal cells divide to form new cells.  Plant cells produce their own food or energy.  Animal cells must obtain food from a source outside of the body.
