Cell Wall is trying to figure out how I want a plant to be shaped. Short or tall?

A few seconds ago

Cell Wall is forming a secondary wall underneath the primary wall in a plant cell.

Cell Wall I’m constantly working, 24/7. I want a break!!August 27, 2011

Cell Wall is undergoing a Gram Stain in a bacterial cell! If I have a lot of peptidoglycan, I will 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.July 20, 2011

Vacuole Thanks for helping me out with turgor to provide a plant with hydraulic stiffness and growth!!

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT MEMADE 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, N-acetyl 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)
