A cell wall is a tough, flexible and 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.
The major carbohydrates making up the primary (growing) plant cell wall are cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin.
Its main function is to check the in and out of molecules from the cell and to keep the cell intact. It also helps in preventing micrbial attack
What else can I help you with?
What are three differernces between plant and animal cel?
Animal cells use centrioles to create a spindle f9r mitosis and animal cells just use microfillaments and microtubles. Animal cells use just mitochondria to create energy while plant cells use a combination of mitochondrion and chloroplasts. A third difference is that animal cells don't have a cell wall.
What does DNA determine in a cell?
DNA determines the genetic information of a cell, including the characteristics and functions of the organism. It contains instructions for making proteins, which are essential for various cellular processes such as growth, development, and reproduction. Additionally, DNA plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression and determining the overall structure and function of a cell.
What does the cel membrane do?
If I remmember this correctly, then the cel membrane is kinda like a small protection, and it's thin enough to let food etc. pass
What is a fluid-like substance inside a cel?
cytoplasm
What contains greatest number of totipotent stem cells?
a fertilized egg cel.
How can you tell the difference between plant and animals cells?
Plant cells have a cell wall, animal cells do not.
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.
What does the cell wall in a plant cel do?
Provides a protective barrier around the plant cell, note that plant cells also have a cell membrane. Cell walls are important to many functions, excretion of waste, taking in of nutrients, protecting the cell from toxins and foreign DNA..... etc... hope that helped
What is interesting in a animal cell?
It looks funny it has almost no form, it has no cel-wall.
What is a cell structure?
A cell structure refers to the different components within a cell that help it carry out its functions. These structures can include the cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria, and other organelles. Each structure plays a specific role in maintaining the cell's health and supporting its various functions.
What do plants have that surrounds th cel l membrane and separates the cell from the environment?
The cell wall
Is chlorophyll present in a plant cell but absent in an animal cell?
yes it is present in a plant cell but absent in an animal cel
Is Golgi apparatus a plant or animal cel?
In both and is a shipping center which ships ribosomes
What would happen if a plant cell had no cell wall?
Without a cell wall a plant cell will not be stable, because a cell wall provides a cell with structural support and protection. A cell wall acts as a pressure vessel, preventing over-expansion when water enters the cell.
What cell parts do animal cells have and plant cells don't?
Animal cells have centrioles and lysosomes, which are not present in plant cells. Centrioles are involved in cell division, while lysosomes are responsible for breaking down waste materials in the cell.
Do plant cells appear the same?
Plant cells divide just like all somatic eukaryotic cells do through mitosis. Plant cells divide the cytoplasm between the two nuclei by forming a cell plate. This is accomplished by the formation of a cleavage furrow in animal cells. The newly divided cell is identical do the parent cell.
