What do you think will happen to an animal cell if its cell membrane burst would the same thing happen to a plant cell?

Plant cells already have a cell membrane, but without the support provided by the cell wall they would probably not be able to grow properly/survive.
If animal cells had a cell wall they would lose the maneuverability that is vital for their survival. Having no cell wall increases the animal's ability to move.
In summary - neither plants nor animals would benefit from this reversal.
This is hypothetical question. The cell wall in plants and only cell membrane in animal cells have been provided by the nature after a long evolutionary process.
Survival of the fittest is the rule of Nature.

What happens in a animal cell in pure water an why does this not happen in a plant cell?
It can possibly burst.
Do plant and animal cells have a nuclear membrane?
All plant and animal cells have nuclear membranes. The presence of a nuclear membrane distinguishes a eukaryote from a prokaryote such as bacteria.
What cell does the cell membrane belong to?
animal cell umm, every cell has a cell membrane, such as both plant and animal cells. umm, every cell has a cell membrane, such as both plant and animal cells.
Is the muscle cell a plant or animal cell?
A cell membrane is found in both plant and animal cells. However only plant cells have both a cell wall and a cell membrane.
Plasma membrane found in animal cell plant cell or both?
The Plasma membrane is found in both the animal cell and plant cell.
What happens in a animal cell in pure water an why does this not happen in a plant cell?
It can possibly burst.
Do plant and animal cells have a plasma membrane?
do animal have a plasma membrane
How are animal and and plant cells different?
animal cells have just a membrane and plant cells have a cell wall to overlap the membrane.
Cell membrane in plant or animal?
A animal cell has a Cell Membrane to protect it, but a plant cell has a Cell Wall that also protects it. Ask me any more questions you need!
Is cell membrane a plant cell?
There is a cell membrane in plant cells and in animal cells.
Is a cell membrane a plant or animal cell or both plus?
A plant has a cell membrane and so does an animal, but they're not just one. An animal has a cell membrane just like a plant but they look different and have different functions.
Do plant and animal cells have a nuclear membrane?
All plant and animal cells have nuclear membranes. The presence of a nuclear membrane distinguishes a eukaryote from a prokaryote such as bacteria.
Ways osmosis can affect a cell?
If water moves into a cell it becomes turgid and if an animal cell can burst. Plant cell will not burst due to cell wall. If water moves out of the cell it is known as flaccid and the cell membrane will contract make the cell smaller, again if its an animal cell.
How do you use membrane in a sentence?
A membrane is apart of a animal or plant cell.
What cell does the cell membrane belong to?
animal cell umm, every cell has a cell membrane, such as both plant and animal cells. umm, every cell has a cell membrane, such as both plant and animal cells.
Is the muscle cell a plant or animal cell?
A cell membrane is found in both plant and animal cells. However only plant cells have both a cell wall and a cell membrane.
Is cell membrane found in animal or plant cells or both?
The cell membrane is found in both plant and animal cells. However, only plant cells have cell walls.
