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)

Epidermal cells are transparent and contains chloroplast. The epidermis allows sunlight to reach tissues deeper in the plant espescially the leaves and the stem, it protects softer tissues in the plant from mechanical injury.
