A plant cell and an animal cell are both placed in the same environment. The plant cell keeps its general shape better. Which structure is mainly responsible?

Answer: C. Cell wall

A plant cell has a rigid cell wall outside its cell membrane. The cell wall gives the cell strength, support, and a definite shape. An animal cell does not have a cell wall. It has only a flexible cell membrane, so its shape can be more easily changed.
