Detailed explanation-3: -Besides the presence of chloroplasts, another major difference between plant and animal cells is the presence of a cell wall. The cell wall surrounds the plasma membrane of plant cells and provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress.

Detailed explanation-4: -Final answer: Cell wall is present in plant cells and not in animal cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Animal cells do not have cell wallsbecause they do not need them. Cell walls, which are found in plant cells, maintain cell shape, almost as if eachcell has its own exoskeleton. This rigidity allows plants to stand upright without the need for bones .
