A major component is cellulose << contents page | << chapter 1 | chapter 2 | chapter 3 >>|. The material a cell wall is made of depends on what kind of organism the cell is part of.
Small plants have slightly elastic cell walls, which allow them to flex and then regain their shape.
In summary, the main difference is that plant cell walls are made of cellulose and fungi cell walls are composed of chitin. Yes, plasma membrane is present in both animal and it helps in cell adhesion by allowing the cell walls of adjacent cells to stick together or bind with each other. Animals and most other protists have cell membranes without surrounding cell walls. The fungal cell wall is a multipolymeric structure that balances strength and rigidity to combat to agar and plastic surfaces, and is likely to facilitate binding to plant materials.
