I swear it is the cell wall that prevents the cell from bursting?? As animal cells don't have cell walls the water would burst them, AND both plant cells and animal cells contain cytoplasm. The answers to this quiz is wrong.

I agree, i think it should have been cell wall, not cytoplasm.

I agree with the people above ^ when I put cell wall it came up wrong, when it's the right answer
