To determine if the cells she is observing are plant cells, Lucia should look for a cell wall outside of the cell membrane. This is a definitive characteristic of plant cells, as they have a rigid cell wall that provides structure and support, while animal cells do not.

So, the correct answer is: **She should look for a cell wall outside of the cell membrane.**
