The plant cells have the cell wall made up of cellulose. In case, a cell represents the presence of cell wall then it is most likely to belong to plant cells.

Other than plant cell fungi as well as some protozoa also possess the cell wall, but the cell wall made up of cellulose is exclusively present in the plant cells.

So, the cell sample collected in this case is most likely came from a plant.
