The plant cell wall is a remarkable structure. It provides the most significant difference between plant cells and other eukaryotic cells. The cell wall is rigid (up to many micrometers in thickness) and gives plant cells a very defined shape.

Plant cells are usually enclosed by a more or less rigid cell wall containing cellulose. Only a few algae as well as some protists and endosperm cells have no cell wall. Some algal groups contain other structural substances than cellulose.

The cell wall is found in plant cells, but not in animal cells. This is the outermost layer in the plant cell. It is stiff, rigid, nonliving, and made of cellulose. It provides support so that the plant can grow tall and protection.
