What does the cell wall do in a plant cell?

Answer 1

1.It maintains the shape of the cell

2.It provides structural strength to the plant

3.It protects the plant cell from mechanical injury

4.It provides a path way for exchange of materials between two adjacent cells

5.It protects the cell from osmotic lysis up to a certain extent.

Answer 2

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, in addition to acting as a filtering mechanism. A major function of the cell wall is to act as a pressure vessel, preventing over-expansion when water enters the cell. Cell walls are found in plants, bacteria, fungi, algae, and some archaea. Animals and protozoa do not have cell walls.

Answer 3

it protects the other cells in the plant and keeps it up instead of falling down

Answer 4

provides mechanical strength to the plant and allows water to pass along it

Answer 5

It keeps harmful particles from getting in the cells

Answer 6

Gives the plant structure and support
