1, Nutrition: Animals are heterotrophs. They can't make their own food through photosynthesis like plants. Animals need to ingest other biological or organic substances to obtain energy and nutrition. Plants are autotrophs. They can use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and synthesize their own organic substances.

2. Mobility: Animals usually have the ability to move voluntarily, and their body structure and moving organs enable them to move freely in the environment. In contrast, plants are usually rooted underground and lack positive mobility. Plants usually move in a slow way, such as plant growth and rotation.

3. Reproductive modes: Animals have many reproductive modes, including sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction. Most animals reproduce through sexual reproduction, which requires two individuals to participate. Plants can also reproduce through sexual reproduction, but they also have the ability to reproduce asexually. Plants can reproduce asexually through seed germination, plant division and cutting.
