Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Cell walls can be found in the following types of cells:
A
only plant cells
B
only animal cells
C
both plant and animal cells
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: Cell wall is present in plant cells and not in animal cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cell wall is present in both animal and plant cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Cell walls are found in most plant cells, bacteria, algae, fungi, and some archaea. In the cells where a cell wall is present, it forms the outermost layer adjacent to the plasma membrane or cell membrane. The cell wall is a rigid semi-permeable structure made up of cellulose or chitin.

Detailed explanation-5: -Summary. 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.
