Solution

The correct option is C - Middle lamella, primary wall and secondary wall

  • A cell wall is a tough and flexible structural layer that surrounds cell membrane in plants, algae and most prokaryotes.
  • It consists of the following three layers:-
  1. The primary cell wall is the outermost thin, flexible and extensible layer.
  2. The secondary cell wall is a thick layer present inside the primary cell wall.
  3. The middle lamella is a layer rich in pectins which form plasmodesmata connections between adjacent cell walls.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Middle lamella, primary wall and secondary wall'.
