Is a cell membrane found in a plant cell but not a aminal cell?

No. Plant and Animal Cells both have Cell Membranes. Plants cells have an extra membrane reffered to as the "Cell Wall". This helps the plant keep its shape. Without it, the plant will be very droopy. Animal cells don't need celll walls b/c they have cells specifically designed for structure of the animal. (Bone cells, muscle cells etc.)


Is the cell membrane a animal plant or both?

All cells have cell walls. The big difference is that plant cells have an additional layer of cell wall covering them.

Does a plant or an animal have a cell wall?

Do cats have cell walls?

No, cats do not have cell walls. Cell walls are a rigid layer surrounding the cells of plants, fungi, and bacteria, providing structure and support. In animals, including cats, cells are surrounded by a cell membrane but do not have cell walls.


Why doesn't the animal cell have a cell wall?

Animals have only cell membranes made up of phospholipid bilayer and protein which protect and hold together the cell and its parts, it does not need to provide the support that plant cells need because animals have other forms of support ( i.e. exoskeletons and endoskeletons) and the lack of the cell wall allows for increased flexibility and advanced cell/tissue specialization, which plants cannot achieve.because animal cells need to be able to move about freely while plant cells don't.


How do the cells of nonvascular plants get the nutrients they need?

By diffusion of the nutrients through the cell walls and membranes.


Why do plant cells have cell walls and animal cell dont?

Plant cells have cell walls because they need the extra protection. This is because plant cells cannot move out of the way of danger like animals can.


What dose an animal cell have that a plant cell dose not have?

An animal cell actually has less things than plant cells. Plant cells have cell walls used to hold the cells up and keep them sturdy while animal cells do not because it would make animals too stiff to move. Plant cells have the cell walls because they need to stand up and don't need to move.
