What is Understanding Cell Walls in Plants and Fungi about?
The cell wall is a non-living, rigid structure that serves as the outer covering for the plasma membrane in fungi, plants, and bacteria. It provides shape, protection, facilitates cell interaction, and acts as a barrier to unwanted macromolecules. The composition of cell walls varies among organisms, with plants primarily consisting of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectins, while algae contain cellulose, galactans, and minerals.
