Detailed explanation-1: -The cell wall is only found in plant cell and absent in animal cells. The animal cells have various structures and the absence of cell wall allows the cells to have different structures. Hence, the assertion is true.
Detailed explanation-2: -No, animal cells do not have a cell wall. They don’t need them. Cell walls are rigid structures found in plant cells. They provide plant cells with much-needed structure, shape, support and protection.
Detailed explanation-3: -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.
