Solution

The correct option is B Secondary cell wall
Lignin is a class of complex organic polymers, They are one of the main classes of structural materials in the support tissues of vascular plants and some algae. Lignins are particularly deposited in the secondary cell wall and so are important in the formation of cell walls, especially in wood and bark, because they lend rigidity and do not rot easily.
