The tough outer covering that lies just outside the cell membrane in a plant cell is called the cell wall. In plant cells, it is usually made up of cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin.

Is a thick outer covering outside the cell membrane?

Well, it depends on what type of cell you are talking about. If it's an animal cell, the outer covering would be the cell membrane. In a plant cell, the outermost one is the cell wall, then the cell membrane.


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.

What is is the outer covering of a plant cell?

The outer covering of a plant cell is called the cell wall. It provides structure and support to the cell, allowing it to maintain its shape and protect the cell from damage. The cell wall is primarily made of cellulose, a strong and rigid carbohydrate polymer.

Where is the plasma membrane found?

The cell membrane is the outer boundary of animal cells and plant cells, but plant cells also have a cell wall to protect their cells. The cell membrane and cell walls are the outer boundaries of cells.


Thick outer covering of a plant cell?

the cell wall is a rigid outer layer unique to plant cells. it shapes and protects the cell, unlike animal cells, whose outer most layer is the plasma membrane (a layer that lies beneath the cell wall in plant cells)


What is the protective outer covering around all cells?

The protective outer covering around all cells is called the cell membrane. It acts as a barrier, controlling what enters and exits the cell, and plays a crucial role in maintaining the cell's internal environment.
