      I don’t think they are – they have a cell wall yes, but that doens’t make them more complicated, it’s just a feature they have!

      Agree with Kevin, actually the plant physiology is easier than animal’s

      Plant cells also have to make their own food so they have chloroplasts, and they need to have a cell wall because they support the structure of the plant, but overall I agree they are not as complicated
