Why do plants have cell walls and animal cells don't?

Plants have cell walls made of cellulose to provide structural support and protection, as they do not have skeletons like animals. Animal cells do not have cell walls because they rely on other structures like bones and muscles for support and protection. Additionally, animal cells must be more flexible to perform specialized functions like movement.
