Unlike the cell membrane the cell wall is A. found in all organisms B. composed of a lipid bilayer C. a flexible barrier D. made of tough fibers?

Unlike the cell membrane, the cell wall is made of tough fibres (D). The cell membrane is mainly composed of a lipid bilayer - which means it is flexible. Plant cell walls are made of cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin - which make the cell rigid.
