Plant cell wall is rigid therefore it protects the plant cells from mechanical
injury and from pathogens. Also gives a plant its shape. Additionally, plant
cell wall prevents cells from rupturing when water enters the cells. Cell wall
is needed for the plant but contributes to plants immobility. Animals, on the
other hand, do not need this structure as they developed nervous, skeletal,
immune, excretory systems.
