Cell wall function?
* A cell wall is a fairly rigid layer surrounding a cell , located external to the cell membrane, which provides the cell with structural support, protection, and acts as a filtering mechanism. * It is the cell walls that give plant stems and wood their stiffness.
Why do plants cell have cell wall?
It gives a structure and protects the inner cells from the external environment.
What part of the cell gives plant cells support and protection?
The cell wall protects the cell and the cytoskeleton gives structural support.
What is the structure that provides internal support and protection for plant and animal cells?
The cytoskeleton provides internal support for plants and animal cells. They are made up of micro-tubules and micro-filaments that maintain the shape and give support to the cell.
What surrounds a bacterial cell and gives the cell shape support and protection?
that is called the cell wall
Structure around the outside of the cell membrane in plants for support and protection?
Cell Wall
What is found outside of the cell membrane in plants and bacteria and provides support and protection?
The cell wall
What is a rigid structure that provides support and protection to plants and some types of bacteria?
cell wall
Why can't plants support their own weight?
Plants are not able to support their own weight because they don't have an internal skeleton like animals do. Instead, they rely on external support structures like the cell wall, interlocking branches and roots, and external support from other plants or structures. Plants also lack muscles and therefore the ability to actively move and contract to support their own weight. The main reasons why plants can't support their own weight are: No internal skeleton Reliance on external support Lack of musclesWithout these key components, plants are unable to develop the strength and resilience to support their own weight.
Why does a cell need a cell wall and a cell membrane?
Well, only plants have cell walls, and they are used for support and protection. Cell Membranes do the same thing, but they also regulate what enters and exits the cell.
Why are cell walls found only in plant cells?
for protection
How does the cell wall work with other cell parts?
It gives the cell protection and support, but it is only found on some kinds of cells. Animals don't have cell walls. Plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae have cell walls.
Do cell walls of nonvascular plants support their bodies?
Yes the cell walls of nonvascular plants do support their bodies
Which external structure of cell would give eucaryotic cell the ability to adhere and communicate?
Glycocalyx is part of the external structure of cells which offers protection, adherence, and communication from cell to cell
What does a cell wall do in a cell'?
the main function of the cell wall is to provide support and protection for the cell
Why do plant cells have cell walls but animal cells dont?
Well, a cell wall gives the plant cell it's straight structure, which makes the plant stand up and animals can support there own weight and plants need protection that gives the cell wall and animals dont need that protection.
