For plant cells, there is a cell wall outside of the cell's membrane. Animal cells do not have walls, so there is no structure outside of the cell membrane.

What name is given to the rigid structure found outside the plasma membrane that surrounds and supports the bacterial cells?

The cell wall is a rigid supporting structure.


What is the structure that surrounds every cell?

The thin structure that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell is called as cell membrane. This is present in most plant, animal and fungi cells. It is a selectively permeable structure and allows the flow of ions and particles from the inside of the cell to the outside and vice-versa. However plant cells, in addition to the cell membrane also have the cell wall outside the cell membrane. This provides mechanical rigidity to the cell and prevents the flow of larger particles.


What structure is found on the outside of the cell membrane in bacteria and plant cells?

While cell membranes might be around every cell, cell walls made of cellulose are only found around plant cells. There are other sorts of cell walls. Many but not all bacteria also have a structure called a cell wall.Fungi and some protozoa also have cell walls. These walls are made of proteins. They serve the same purpose of protecting and maintaining structure.


What part of the cell is the outer part of an animal cell?

The outermost structure of an animal cell is the cell membrane. The cell membrane is the membrane separating the interior of the cell from the outside environment. It is made up of proteins and lipids.


Are cell walls considered organelles in a cell's structure?

No, cell walls are not considered organelles in a cell's structure. Organelles are membrane-bound structures within a cell that have specific functions, while cell walls are rigid structures found outside the cell membrane that provide support and protection to the cell.

What is the outside of the membrane called?

Membranes do not have a stiff outside. I suspect the answer you are looking for is the cell wall, which is a stiff structure found outside the cell membrane of a plant cell, but separate from it.


The protective covering on the outside of the cell is called the?

For plant cells, they have a cell membrane and covering the cell membrane is a cell wall. The cell wall is for the structure of the plant. For animal cells, they just have a cell membrane.
