What
is the difference between cell wall of plant andcell wall of prokaryotes
​

Answer 1

Answer:Prokaryotes have a phospholipid bilayer cell membrane that serves as attachment point for the intracellular cytoskeleton and cell wall. They have a rigid cell wall that helps form the “shape” and prevent the cell from over-expanding on entry of water/fluid.

Eukaryotes have a cell membrane(“Plasma membrane”) lipid/protein/carbohydrate complex, that acts as a barrier and contains signalling pathways. Animal cells DO NOT have cell walls. Neither do protozoans. Plants have them made of cellulose/hemicellulose/sometimes lignin. Algae and Fungi also have walls made of cellulose.. while Fungal cell walls can also contain Chitin(polysaccharide containing nitrogen) .
