Cellulose. It is so tough even we humans cannot break it down.
While cell membranes might be around every cell, cell walls made of cellulose are only found around plant cells. Cell wallsare made of specialized sugars called cellulose. Cellulose provides a protected framework for a plant cell to survive. It's like taking a water balloon and putting it in a cardboard box. The balloon is protected from the outside world. Cellulose is called a structural carbohydrate (complex sugar) because it is used in protection and support.Cell walls also help a plant keep its shape. While they do protect the cells, cell walls and cellulose also allow plants to grow to great heights. While you have a skeleton to hold you up, a 100-foot tall redwood tree does not. It uses the strong cell walls to maintain its shape. For smaller plants, cell walls are slightly elastic. Wind can push them over and then they bounce back. Big redwoods need strength in high winds and sway very little (except at the top).Another Hole in the WallA cell wall is not a fortress around the delicate plant cell. There are small holes in the wall that let nutrients, waste, and ions pass through. Those holes are called plasmodesmata. These holes have a problem: water can also be lost. But even when the plant cell loses water, the basic shape is maintained by the cell walls. So if a plant is drooping because it needs water, it can recover when water is added. It will look just the same as when it started.More Than Walls in PlantsYou may hear about cell walls in other areas of biology. Bacteria also have a structure called a cell wall. Fungi and some ptotozoa also have cell walls. They are not the same. Only plant cell walls are made out of cellulose. The other walls might be made from proteins or a substance called chitin. They all serve the same purpose of protecting and maintaining structure, but they are very different molecules.
Containing a cell wall indicates that the cell does not belong to an animal or a protozoa. Containing chloroplast indicates that the cell is eukaryotic and conducts photosynthesis.Therefore, one could infer that the cell in question is likely a plant cell.
Cellulose is an extremely good indicator. Plant cells have cell walls, which are mostly cellulose. Animal cells do not have cell walls.Another one is chlorophyll ... though that's not quite as good, since only some plants produce chlorophyll, and even they may not produce it in all parts of the plant (for example, it wouldn't usually be found in the roots).
Those animal cells placed in pure water will swell but plant cells are restricted by their cells walls. If place in a solution high in sugar (or even salt), both cells will shrink in a process called crenation (shriveling).
If you are referring to plant cell walls, then they are made up of primarily cellulose and carbohydrates. Even though carbohydrates do make up cell walls in plants, cellulose (a polymer of glucose {consists of many glucose molecules}) is the primary structural component of a plant cell wall.
Cell walls are only found in Plant Cells. So they are not even there to do anything

Mushroom cells do have cell walls that are made out of chitin.
the primary wall can still grow with the cell, while once the secondary wall is created the cell can no longer grow. Even after the cell dies, the secondary wall will remain.

The cells gain energy and water and distribute water and the energy to its rightful locations.
Animal cells have a cell membrane, plant cells have a cell wall and a cell membrane. Animals (espeacially simple organisms) are motile, having a cell wall restricts movement as cell walls are rigid structures. Imagine if a human cells were to have cell walls, the rigidity of the structure would slow or even impede movement - basically we'd end up like plants pretty much stationary.

Even though, animals and plants share the same domain they are fundamentally different. Plants have cryptoskeletons that are mostly formed of rigid cell walls while the cryptoskeletons in animals are mostly actin filaments.
A animals cells are connected together by a thing called junctions . A junction connects either the cytoplasm , membrane or even cell itself together to form a in penetrable cell wall of fluid .
Yes. Plant cells are eukariotic which means they have a nucleus, opposed to prokariotic cells with no nucleus like bacteria. The only main differences between a plant cell and an animal cell is that a plant cells has a cell wall, chloroplast, a bigger vacuole, and no lysosomes. Also when a animal cell dies it is broken down, but a plant cell's cell wall stays to provide structure even after its dead. So all plant cells have a nucleus.
