Solution

The correct option is B False
Cell walls are present in plants, bacteria, and fungi. Animal cells do not have a cell wall, they are bounded by the cell membrane alone. The cell wall is more rigid than the cell membrane and provides structural and mechanical support to cells. Cell walls also protect cells from the entry of pathogens.
