No. The cell membrane is there in both animals and plants. The function of it is to protect the cell and control what goes in and out of the cell. This is called osmosis and diffusion (osmosis is the diffusion of water).
The cell wall is outside the cell membrane and is only there in plant cells. It acts as another barrier between the outside world and the inside of the cell while also maintaining the rigidity of the cell. It also filters things in and out of the cell.
No, they are significantly different.
The cell wall is a relatively simple structure, porous to many molecules. Its function is to provide protection and support for the cell within. The cell walls of different organisms are chemically different. Plants have largely cellulose in their cell walls. Fungi have chitin, and bacteria peptidoglycans.
The cell membrane has a complex and highly organized structure. Much of it consists of a double layer of phospholipid molecules, called the phospholipid bilayer. Embedded in this bilayer are proteins of various kinds: enzymes, receptor proteins, and transport proteins (channel proteins and carrier proteins). Between them, the phospholipids and proteins regulate the entry and departure of ions and molecules, whereas the cell wall lets almost anything through!
They are both sorrounding the cell. they provide structure, filter, protection, etc. The cell wall is not in all the cells, nevertheless, those that have it have better protection.
The cell membrane, also servers to provide structure, certain protection; serving more as a filter. The strongest cells are those that have both: a cell membrane and a cell wall.
One major difference is that the cell membrane is a flexible barrier that surrounds the cell and regulates what enters and exits the cell, while the cell wall is a rigid structure located outside the cell membrane that provides structural support and protection to the cell.
The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that forms a boundary between the cell and the external environment. The vacuole is the storage area within the cell.
One main difference is that the cell membrane is a selectively permeable barrier surrounding the cell, regulating the passage of substances in and out, while the cell wall is a rigid structure located outside the cell membrane that provides support and protection to the cell.
Animal cells have a cell membrane but do not have chloroplasts or a cell wall.
The plasma membrane, also known as the cell membrane, functions similarly to the cell wall by providing structure, protecting the cell, and regulating what enters and exits the cell. It is a phospholipid bilayer that surrounds the cell and maintains its integrity.
The cell membrane would be in the same place as the cell wall on one that has one- on the outside of the cell. In cells with cell walls, the cell membrane is in-between the cell wall and the cytoplasm.

The space between the cell wall and cell membrane is called the periplasmic space. It is present in bacterial cells and contains various proteins, enzymes, and other molecules important for cell function and metabolism.
One major difference is that the cell membrane is a flexible barrier that surrounds the cell and regulates what enters and exits the cell, while the cell wall is a rigid structure located outside the cell membrane that provides structural support and protection to the cell.
No the cell wall is the outside layer of the cell surronding the cell membrane and nucleus.
No. There is just the cell membrane, cytoplasm and the nucleus. No, a Plant cell has a Cell Wall but a Animal has a cell membrane which is the same thing as a plasma membrane
it is not call ed the outer membrane, its the cell wall. It does the same thing like the cell membrane, but the cell wall is much for stricter with objects coming in and out of cell, what is call, selectivly permeable
Secondary cell wall
The Cell Membrane is the wall of the cell. It is what keeps the organelles of the cell in and controls what come in and out of the cell. The Cell Wall is just an easier name to remember. :}
You can't have a cell wall and a cell membrane so no
