Question

5 The image shows a plant cell and animal cell kept in two different solutions. Based on the image, what can be Solution A Solution B Animal cell inferred about the function of the cell wall? Plant cell 1: (a) Cell wall retains the shape of plant cell. 2: (b) Cell wall helps change the shape of animal cell. 3: (c) Cell wall regulates the size of the vacuole in the plant cell.4: (d) Cell wall manages the amount of cytoplasm in the animal cell ​

Answer 1

The Function of Cell Wall as inferred from the activity is (a) Cell wall retains the shape of plant cell.

Explanation:

• Plant cells are surrounded by a special membrane called the cell wall. This structure protects the cell and aids in its shape maintenance.
• The cell wall of a plant cell is made up of cellulose, a polysaccharide made up of glucose.
• Cell walls do not exist in animal cells.

Hence, The Function of Cell Wall as inferred from the activity is (a) Cell wall retains the shape of plant cell.
