Why is cell wall present only in plants?

rpose of cell wall is to give rigidity to plants.


Where is the cell membrane located and how is it different from a cell wall?

The cell membrane is located beneath the cell wall. The cell membrane is present in almost all types of cells whereas the cell wall is present in bacteria, fungi, algae, plant cell and is absent in protozoans and animal cells. The cell membrane is semipermeable and give support to the cytoskeleton of the cell, gives shape to the cell and helps in the formation of tissues whereas the function of the cell wall is to provide strength and rigidity to the cell, protects the cell against mechanical forces. The cell membrane is not elastic but permeable whereas the cell wall is elastic and controls turgidity. The cell membrane is found in animal cells wheres the cell wall is found in plant cells. The cell membrane is made up of lipids and proteins whereas the cell wall is made up of cellulose.

What keeps the shapes and protects the cell?

In an animal (and human) cell, the cell membrane gives it its shape. And in a plant cell, both a cell membrane and cell wall give it its shape and protects it


What type of cell membrane do cells have?

The cell's membrane is "selectively permeable" because the cell allows some materials to enter or leave.I'm in grade eight. This is what my Science textbook says:"Because the cell membrane allows certain substances to enter or leave, but not others, it is said to be selectively permeable."


What is the of a cell membrane in an animal cells?

if you are talking about function, it is to control what get in and out of a cell and to give the cell a shape
