A
Animal
B
Plant
C
Animal and Plant
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cell wall is present in plant cells, bacteria, and fungi. In plants, the cell wall is the outermost part of the cell and is mainly involved in providing structural support, and rigidity and also protects the plant cell from the external environment. It is composed of cellulose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Algae, fungi, and plant cells have a cell wall; animal cells and protozoans lack cell walls. The rigid, tightknit, polysaccharide molecular structure of the cell wall helps the cell resist osmotic lysis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Conclusion. Plant cells have certain distinguishing features, including chloroplasts, cell walls, and intracellular vacuoles. Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts; cell walls allow plants to have strong, upright structures; and vacuoles help regulate how cells handle water and storage of other molecules.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. In plants, the cell wall surrounds the cell membrane. This gives the plant cell its unique rectangular shape. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.

Detailed explanation-5: -The cell wall is the outer covering of a cell, present adjacent to the cell membrane, which is also called the plasma membrane. As mentioned earlier, the cell wall is present in all plant cells, fungi, bacteria, algae, and some archaea.
