The total volume of plant cells is often significantly greater than the total volume in animal cells. The most reasonable explanation for this observation is thatplant cells are capable of having a much higher surface-to-volume ratio than animal cells.animal cells are spherical, whereas plant cells are elongated.plant cells contain a large vacuole that occupies much of the volume of the cell.plant cells have a much more highly convoluted (folded) plasma membrane than animal cells.
