providing strength and support
protecting the cell
blocking all substances from entering the cell
determining cell shape
Brief Explanations
The cell wall is a rigid outer structure in cells like plant, fungal, and bacterial cells. It provides structural rigidity to give strength/support, acts as a barrier to protect the cell, and its fixed form determines the cell's shape. It is selectively permeable, not impermeable, so it does not block all substances.
