Question

difference between plasma membrane and cell wall on the basis structure and the functions at least 4 points

Answer 1

    Plasma membrane                                               Cell Wall
 *Semi-permeable                                                * Freely permeable
 *Made up of lipoproteins                                     *Composed of cellulose
 *It is a living membrane                                      *It is a non-living rigid layer
 *Seen in animal cells and plant                           *Seen in plant cells only
  cells                                
 

Answer 2

"Difference between plasma membrane and cell wall is given below.

Plasma membrane  

1. All cells contain plasma membrane.

2. The plasma membrane is also known as cell membrane.

3. It is semi-permeable.

4. It is build of proteins and lipids.

Cell wall

1. Mostly it is present in bacteria, fungi and plants cells. But absent in animal cells.

2. Cell wall do not have any other name.

3. It is permeable.

4. It is build of cellulose.

These are the important differences that lies between the plasma membrane and the cell wall in an animal cell."
