Every plant and animal cell is surrounded by a cell membrane. Plant cells have both a cell membrane and a cell wall because they can create there own food through photosynthesis. Animal cells have to absorb food, so they cant have a cell wall.

Do anima l cells have a cell wall?

No, animal cells do not have a cell wall. They are surrounded by a plasma membrane, which is a flexible boundary that allows for movement and communication between cells. The absence of a cell wall is a distinguishing feature of animal cells compared to plant cells.


Which Cells do NOT produce cell walls?

Animal cells do not produce cell walls. This is a key difference between animal and plant cells, as plant cells are surrounded by a rigid cell wall composed of cellulose, while animal cells have a flexible cell membrane that does not contain a cell wall.
