KINGDOM ANIMALIA

Eukaryotic:

They are made up of eukaryotic cells, i.e., they contain a well defined nucleus and membrane bound organelles. They lack plastids and contain small and large number of vacuoles.

Cell wall:

Cell wall is absent. Plasma membrane is the outermost layer in animal cells which is made up of proteins and lipids.
