How does the cell wall protect a plant cell?
the cell wall is thick and fibrous and provides a barrier between the cell and its external environment.
the cell wall does not protect the cell because the cell membrane does.
the cell wall is thin and flexible, which allows the cell to be moved without harming the organelles.
the cell wall is on the inside of the cell and serves to contain the contents of the cell.

The cell wall present around the plant cells protects the cells by providing a barrier between the cell and the external environment. The cell wall of the plants is made up of cellulose. It helps in maintaining the structure of the cell as well as provides it protection from any external harm. The cell wall is rigid and semi-permeable. It acts as a gate keeper, and controls what goes inside and out of the cell, providing protection and structural integrity to it.

Hence, the answer is 'The cell wall is thick and fibrous and provides a barrier between the cell and its external environment'.

The correct answer is option A

The cell wall is the coating present in all the plant cell that helps to maintain the rigidity and integrity of the cell.

It acts a rigid wall for the plant cell to protect it from the external environment. Chemically, it is made up of cellulose.

There can be harsh conditions in the environment that can harm the plant so the plant cell was protects it from harsh conditions.
