Animal cells are surrounded only by a cell membrane. Plant cells have both a cell membrane and a rigid cell wall located outside the cell membrane.
The presence of a cell wall is a defining characteristic of plant cells (and fungal, algal, and bacterial cells) that is absent in animal cells. Both plant and animal cells have a cell membrane.
The cell membrane regulates the passage of substances into and out of the cell and is present in all known cell types. The plant cell wall provides structural support, protects the cell, and prevents excessive water uptake.
