Average Lamina: It´s the outerest, mainly made up of pectins and proteins (Older lignin
cells), Originates during cell división when cell plaque forms.

Primary Wall:

• Is located below the middle sheet.

• Has cellulose microfibers (9-25%)

• Has pectin, Hemicelulose and Protein.

• Allows stretching and is found in cells

that still grow.

Secondary Wall:
•Located below the primary wall and
the membrane.
•Made up of several layers.
•In each layer the fibers are ordered in
different orientations.
•Has cellulose and not pectin.
•Sometimes plymers such as lignin
become part of it is composition.
•Does not allow stretching and is
found in cells that do not grow.
 FUNCTIONS
FUNCTIONS

• Mechanical Resistance

• Acts as skeletal structure.

• Joins cells together.

• Allows plant cells to live in the hypotonic environment around

them.

• Cutinization and suberification.

• It is a barrier.

• Lignification
 CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
• The cell wall is characteristic of plant cell. This is due to many of the
characteristics of vegetables as organisms. Whithout their presence, the cells
would have a deformation or irregular shape in the fase of mechanical
deformations, as los of waterproofness. Another would be cutinization and
suberification use (allows the plant to stay upright).
