Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Multicellular organisms are made up of numerous cells. These cells collectively make a tissue and these tissues grow into an organ. So, to keep these cells together, some specialized structures on the plasma membrane are found. These specialized structures allow the communication of cells with neighboring cells.

Each cell in an organism has all of the basic parts. Each has a function that benefits the other cells, how might the presence of different cell structures in plant and animal help them perform their functions as an organism. Briefly Explain.
Contrast the extracellular matrix of an animal cell with thecell wall of a plant cell.

Being thin and pliable, this primary wall allows the cell to enlarge and change shape. At maturity, cells in some plant tissues deposit material onto the primary wall’s inner surface. Why doesn’t this secondary wall form on the outer surface of the primary wall?arrow_forward
