    This document discusses cell structure and function, specifically focusing on cell walls. It provides 15 multiple choice questions about cell walls, including who discovered them, when they were discovered, their composition, thickness, role in plant cells, and industrial uses. Key points covered are that Robert Hooke discovered cell walls in 1665, they are the outermost boundary of plant cells, secreted by the cytoplasm, can vary in thickness, each plant cell has its own cell wall connected to neighbors by middle lamella, and are composed of cellulose which is used in industries like explosives, textiles, membranes, plastics and paper.
