Human: Can you explain the differences between plant and animal cells?

Assistant: Plants and animals both have cells, which are the basic units of life. But there are several important differences between plant cells and animal cells. First of all, plant cells have strong cell walls, which animal cells don't have. Plant cells also have cellulose, a very strong fiber that makes up their cell walls, and which gives structural support. Plant cells also contain chlorophyll, a green chemical in their chloroplasts that converts sunlight into chemical energy for the plant to use. In animal cells, there's no chlorophyll, and the function of the cell is more to transport materials and perform chemical reactions within the cell. Lastly, plant cells have a large and thick cell membrane that surrounds them, while animal cells have a much flimsier cell membrane.


Human: Can you explain the differences between plant and animal cells?

Assistant: Yes, plant cells are larger and more structured than animal cells, as they have a large central vacuole that stores extra water and nutrients.  Animal cells are much smaller, and do not have a large central vacuole.  Furthermore, plant cells have cell walls, which use cellulose and other chemicals to hold them internally intact, while animal cells do not have cell walls.  You can read more about these differences in the Wikipedia articles on "plant cell" and "animal cell."
