A
Plant cell
B
Chloroplast
C
Cytoplasm
D
Cell Wall
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cell wall surrounds the plasma membrane of plant cells and provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress. It also allows cells to develop turgor pressure, which is the pressure of the cell contents against the cell wall.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cell wall is a rigid layer that is found outside the cell membrane and surrounds the cell, providing structural support and protection. The central vacuole maintains turgor pressure against the cell wall.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cell Wall-The rigid layer of material that surrounds the plant cell giving it strength and protection. Plant cell only. Cell Membrane-The outside boundary of the animal cell, the part next to the cell wall in a plant.

Detailed explanation-4: -A cell wall is a structural layer surrounding some types of cells, just outside the cell membrane. It can be tough, flexible, and sometimes rigid. It provides the cell with both structural support and protection, and also acts as a filtering mechanism.
