Categorize the choices below based on whether they are characteristic of a plant cell or an animal cell by placing each choice in the appropriate box. Plant Cells Animal Cells Plasmodesmata connect these cells Do not have plastids Various junctions, like gap and tight junctions, connect these cells Contain large vacuoles Have plastids Cell wall Centrioles present during mitosis A cleavage furrow is involved in cell division A cell plate is involved in cell division No cell wall If vacuoles are present, they are small No centrioles during mitosis
