Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The function of the cell wall is to support the plant cell and to protect it from things outside the cell. It is only found on the plant cell. It is like the skeletal system because it supports the cell. Did you know that the cell wall prevents cells from bursting as they absorb water?
Detailed explanation-2: -It provides a structural framework to support plant growth and acts as the first line of defense when the plant encounters pathogens. The cell wall must also retain some flexibility, such that when subjected to developmental, biotic, or abiotic stimuli it can be rapidly remodeled in response.
