Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
PLANT CELL WALL IS MAINLY COMPOSED OF
A
CELLULOSE
B
HEMI-CELLULOSE
C
PROTEIN
D
LIPIDS
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cell wall is composed of a network of cellulose microfibrils and cross-linking glycans embedded in a highly cross-linked matrix of pectin polysaccharides. In secondary cell walls, lignin may be deposited.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plant cell walls are primarily made of cellulose, which is the most abundant macromolecule on Earth. Cellulose fibers are long, linear polymers of hundreds of glucose molecules. These fibers aggregate into bundles of about 40, which are called microfibrils.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cell wall is mainly composed of cellulose.

Detailed explanation-4: -The plant cell wall is a natural nanoscale network structure that primarily consists of polysaccharide polymers such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin, but often includes glycoproteins and lignin as well.

Detailed explanation-5: -The photosynthetic eukaryotes (so-called plant and algae) is one group with cellulose cell walls, where the cell wall is closely related to the evolution of multicellularity, terrestrialization and vascularization.
