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

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).
