Plant cell wall
The plant cell wall is the rigid and permeable outermost covering of the plant cells.
The cell wall of a plant cell has three layers which are the middle lamella, primary wall, and secondary wall.
All plant cells have middle lamella as well as the primary cell wall but the secondary cell wall is present in some plants.
The middle lamella is the outermost section of the plant cell wall and is made up of pectins.
The primary wall section is found between the middle lamella and the plasma membrane. It has fibers made up of cellulose and hemicellulose as well as pectin. This section provides strength and flexibility to the cell wall.
The third section is the secondary wall. It occurs in some plant cells at their time of maturity. The formation of a secondary cell wall occurs when the primary one stops growing further. The secondary wall is formed by the deposition of lignin between the primary wall and plasma membrane.
So, in a young plant cell, the primary wall is capable of growth, which gradually diminishes as the cell matures and the secondary wall is formed on the inner (towards membrane) side of the cell.
Final answer: (C) Inner (towards membrane) side of the cell
