The cell wall is the tough, usually flexible but sometimes fairly rigid layer that surrounds some types of cells. It is located outside the cell membrane and provides these cells with structural support and protection, and also acts as a filtering mechanism.

This means it is semi-permeable.

Yes, understanding that there is a difference between a cell membrane (found in both plants and animals and made of lipids), plant cells also have cell walls and these are made out of cellulose a "polysaccharide", a polymer made out sugars (which is are carbohydrates).
