We have already discussed in detail the differences between plant cell and animal cells. Now let us see how these two cell types are
similar.
1. Both plant cell and animal cell is Eukaryotic (with true
nucleus or genetic material surrounded by a membrane).
2. Both plant cell and animal cell possess cell membrane or
plasma membrane which regulates the movement of substances between the cell and
the surroundings. (In animal cells, cell membrane is the outermost boundary
where as in plant cell, cell membrane is present just inner to cell wall)
3. Both plant cell and animal cell possess a well defined
nucleus and cytoplasm, where genetic material DNA is surrounded by a nuclear
membrane.
4. Most of the organelles like nucleus, mitochondrion, Golgi
apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum etc are present in both plant cell and animal
cell.
5. In both plants and animals cells, DNA is double stranded
and complexed with histone proteins and proteins are synthesized by ribosomes in the
cytoplasm.
