The outermost cover of plant cells is/are known as ________.

The correct answer is Cell wall.Key Points

• The cell wall is a rigid layer that surrounds the cell membrane of plant cells, bacteria, fungi, and some protists.
• It provides structural support and protection to the cell, and helps maintain its shape.
• The cell wall is made up of cellulose, a complex carbohydrate that gives it its strength and rigidity.
• The cell wall also has pores that allow for the exchange of water, nutrients, and gases between the cell and its environment.

Additional Information

• The cell membrane is a thin, flexible layer that surrounds the cell and separates its internal environment from the external environment.
  • It regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell, and also plays a role in cell signaling and communication.
• Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain enzymes for breaking down and recycling cellular waste and foreign materials.
  • They are found in animal cells, but not in plant cells.
• The Golgi apparatus is an organelle that sorts, modifies, and packages proteins and lipids for transport within the cell or secretion outside the cell.
  • It is made up of a series of flattened, membrane-bound sacs called cisternae.
