To protect the contents of the plant cell and to support the structure of the plant.
--
A cell wall is a tough, usually flexible but sometimes fairly rigid layer that surrounds some types of cells. It is located outside the cell membrane and provides these cells with structural support and protection, and also acts as a filtering mechanism. A major function of the cell wall is to act as a pressure vessel, preventing over-expansion when water enters the cell. They are found in plants, bacteria, fungi, algae, and some archaea. Animals and protozoa do not have cell walls.
What else can I help you with?
How do the cell walls of fungi differ from the cell walls of plants?
Fungal cell walls are primarily made of chitin, while plant cell walls are primarily made of cellulose. Fungal cell walls do not contain lignin, which is found in plant cell walls and provides rigidity. Additionally, fungal cell walls do not have chloroplasts like plant cell walls do.
Do plants have cell walls?
Yes, plants have cell walls. Cell walls are rigid structures that surround plant cells, providing support and structure to the plant. The cell walls are primarily composed of cellulose, a complex carbohydrate.
Is there any similarity between bacterial cell wall and plant cell wall?
No, there is no similarity in bacterial cell walls and plant cell walls. They are different morphologically and also in chemical composition; plant cell walls are made up of cellulose, whereas bacterial cell walls are made up of peptidoglycan (also known as murein).
Do all eukaryotic cells have cell walls?
No, only plant cells have cell walls! Animal cells have a cell membrane.
Which types of cells definitely contain cell walls?
Plant cells and bacterial cells definitely contain cell walls.
What are Cell walls job?
whats the cell walls job??

Why cant the plant not have a cell wall?
Well plant cells are the cells with cell walls so plants have cell walls.
How many cells have cell walls?
plant cells have cell walls
What do cell walls do in a cell?
they protect the cell from damage. only plant calls have cell walls.
Does plants or animals have cell walls?
Plant cells have cell walls, animal cells don't have cell walls.
Do plants have cell walls?
Yes, plants have cell walls. Cell walls are rigid structures that surround plant cells, providing support and structure to the plant. The cell walls are primarily composed of cellulose, a complex carbohydrate.
What has cell walls?
plant cells and animal cells both have cell walls.
Is it true all cell have cell walls?
Only plant cells have walls
Do body cells have cell walls?
No only plant cells have cell walls.
What are in plant cell that is not in animal cell?
Plant cells have cell walls, and animal cells do not.
Is there any similarity between bacterial cell wall and plant cell wall?
No, there is no similarity in bacterial cell walls and plant cell walls. They are different morphologically and also in chemical composition; plant cell walls are made up of cellulose, whereas bacterial cell walls are made up of peptidoglycan (also known as murein).
