Answer 1

Plant cells have a rigid structure, while animal cells have a more flexible structure.
Explanation:
Plant cells have a cell wall, a large central vacuole, and plastids such as chloroplasts. The cell wall is a rigid layer that is found outside the cell membrane and surrounds the cell, providing structural support and protection.
