Cell wall and cell membrane
Answers
Cell Wall
A cell wall is a structural layer surrounding some types of cells, just outside the cell membrane. It can be tough, flexible, and sometimes rigid. It provides the cell with both structural support and protection, and also acts as a filtering mechanism.
Cell Membrane
The cell membrane is the semipermeable membrane of a cell that surrounds and encloses its contents of cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. The cell membrane separates the cell from the surrounding interstitial fluid, the main component of the extracellular fluid.
The cell wall is the outermost covering of plant cells. It is present outside the cell membrane and is tough, flexible and sometimes rigid in its texture. It is mainly composed of cellulose, long fibres of carbohydrates including hemicellulose, lignin and pectin.Cell Membrane is present in all organisms including plants
The cell membrane is also known as the plasma membrane. It is the outermost covering of animal cells. It is a semi-permeable membrane composed of lipids and proteins
