Plant Cell Biology: Structure and Function, Quizzes of Plant Taxonomy and Evolution

Definitions and terms related to the plant cell, including its components such as mitochondria, chloroplast, cytoskeleton, and cell walls made up of pectin, cellulose, and hemicellulose. It also covers the functions of various cell types like parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma, and their roles in storage, support, and conduction.

TERM 4
Middle Lamella
DEFINITION 4
The middle lamella is a pectin layer which cements the cell
walls of two adjoining cells together. Plants need this to give
them stability and so that they can form plasmodesmata
between the cells.

Sticks everything together in primary cell wall
