Question

why do plant cell need cell wall and not the animal cell

Answer 1

Exactly why plant cell have wall and animal cell don't :-Cell walls are supporting structures that help the plant to have a fixed shape and protect it from injury. Other than that, it helps to keep the plant turgid so that it can stay firm and upright. Because when it enters a high water potential solution, as water moves in, the water exerts turgor pressure on the cell wall and the cell wall thus exerts an opposing pressure to keep water out. Hence cell wall is needed for the plant.

Answer 2

Because plant have simple structure and animal have complex structure
