  1. Apr 27, 2017 · A cell wall is an outer layer surrounding certain cells that is outside of the cell membrane. All cells have cell membranes, but generally only plants, fungi, algae, most bacteria, and archaea have cells with cell walls.

  2. Mar 15, 2019 · A cell wall provides an additional layer of protection on top of the cell membrane. It is found in plants, algae, fungi, prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The cell wall makes plants rigid and less flexible. It is primarily made up of carbohydrates like pectin, cellulose and hemicellulose.

  3. The cell wall structure has three layers; middle lamella, primary, and secondary cell wall. Middle lamella is the outer layer of the plant cell wall. It works as an interface between neighboring cells and attaches them. The layer has pectin, lignin, and some proteins.
