That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The function of a cell wall is to provide structure and protection to the cell. It acts as a rigid outer layer that gives shape to the cell and protects it from external mechanical forces. The cell wall also helps in preventing the cell from bursting due to osmotic pressure. Additionally, it provides a barrier against pathogens and other harmful substances, ensuring the cell's integrity and survival.
