Cell Wall I’m constantly working,
24/7. I want a break!!

Vacuole Thanks for helping me out with turgor to provide a plant with hydraulic
stiffness and growth!! 
Friends
Cell Wall is undergoing a Gram Stain in a bacterial cell! If I have a lot of peptidoglycan, I will
Cell
Membrane Nucleus
stain a dark purple and be gram positive. If I stain a light purple, I don’t have as much
peptidoglycan and will be gram negative.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ME
MADE OF:
Plant cells
•
Polysaccharides (cellulose,
hemicellulose, pectin)
•
Glycoproteins
•
Phenolic esters (ferulic and
coumaric acids)
•
Minerals (calcium and boron)
•
Enzymes
•
Lignin (only found in secondary cell
walls)
Bacterial cells
•
Peptidoglycan (sugars, and amino
acids, amount differs for each kind of
bacteria)
•
Polymer (N-acetyl glucosamine, Nacetyl muramic acid, amino acids)
FUNCTION:
- Protects everything inside the cell
- Provides rigidity to plants
- Regulates growth of plants and protects it
from disease
-Provides a porous area for the distribution
of water and other nutrients
-Prevents cell from bursting due to osmotic
stress
MISCELLANEOUS:
-A middle lamella is on the outside of the primary wall and connects surrounding
cells, allowing them to communicate.
-Plant cells have a primary cell wall that moves with them as they grow, and once
they stop growing, they form a more rigid secondary cell wall.
- 2 kinds of bacterial cells: gram positive (single layer) and negative (3 layers)
