Chapter 3.6, Problem 3MC
Summary Introduction
To describe:
The functions and chemical composition of a plant cell wall.
Concept introduction:
Plant cell wall contains nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, plastids, mitochondria, and ribosomes. The cytoplasm undergoes streamlining movements. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the plastids which contain chlorophyll.

Microtubules are hollow tubes of protein that provide structural support. Plant cells lack a cytoskeleton because they have a rigid cell wall. Intermediate filaments are more permanent structures in cells compared to microfilaments and microtubules. Microfilaments are chains of proteins that resist stretching. Components of the cytoskeleton are often involved with movement of organelles within the cytoplasm.arrow_forward
