Answer:
A cell wall can be defined as a rigid layer of non-living component that encircles the contents of the cell, covering the outmost layer of a cell.
Explanation:
- The cell wall is the most prominent part of the plant’s cell structure. It is made up of cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin.
- The cell wall is present exclusively in plant cells. It protects the plasma membrane and other cellular components. The cell wall is also the outermost layer of plant cells.
- It is a rigid and stiff structure surrounding the cell membrane.
- It provides shape and support to the cells and protects them from mechanical shocks and injuries.
