A rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane for support and protection of the cell.
A
Chloroplasts
B
Cell Wall
C
Cell Membrane
D
Cytoplasm
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cell wall surrounds the plasma membrane and provides the cell tensile strength and protection. Besides the presence of chloroplasts, another major difference between plant and animal cells is the presence of a 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: -Complete answer: A plant cell wall is arranged in layers and contains cellulose microfibrils, hemicellulose, pectin, lignin, and soluble protein. The cell wall surrounds the plasma membrane of plant cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant cells have a cell wall, a large central vacuole, and plastids such as chloroplasts. The cell wall is a rigid layer that is found outside the cell membrane and surrounds the cell, providing structural support and protection.

Detailed explanation-5: -The cell wall is the structure that surrounds the cell membrane and gives support to the cell. The cell wall provides tensile strength as well as protection to the cell.
