which means they produce energy through photosynthesis

Plant cells have the same basic structures as animal cells, as well as
these 2 additional structures:
Cell wallâ ”provides support for the cell. It surrounds the cell membrane
and gives it strength and form. This allows plants to be rigid even
though they do not have a skeleton like most animals do.
Chloroplastsâ ”the â śpower plantsâ ť of the cell. They make food using sunlight,
chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and water. This is a major factor in
determining if a living thing is a plant or an animal.
Plant cells generally have a square or rectangular shape as shown below.
The cell wall helps the plant cell hold its shape, which in turn helps the
entire plant hold its shape.
