Answer:

Cheek cells lack a rigid cell wall and due to this their shape is not as well defined as a plant cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Cell wall is the outermost structure in plant and bacterial cells.
  • The plant cell wall is made up of cellulose and provide rigidity and shape to the cell.
  • In animal cell, the cell wall is absent and the outermost part of the cell is the cell memrane.
  • This is the reason that most animal cell lack rigidity and shape.
