Difference between cell wall and cell membrane

CELL WALL :



  1. The cell wall is the outermost boundary membrane of plant cells.
  2. It is thick, rigid and non-living.
  3. The cell wall is compost of three layers namely middle lamella, primary wall and the secondary wall.
  4. Cell wall is permeable.
  5. It is not involve in the formation of cell organelles.
  6. The cell wall does not perform endocytosis.







CELL MEMBRANE :



  1. The cell membrane is the outermost boundary of animal cell but in plant cells it lies beneath the cell wall.
  2. Is is thin, delicate and living in nature.
  3. The cell membrane is also consists of three layers- The outer and inner protein layers between which an another layer which is known as lipid layer as the layer is compost of lipid.
  4. Cell membrane is semi-permiable in nature.
  5. Cell membrane helps in the formation of covering membrane of cell organelles.
  6. It performs endocytosis.
