    Study Notes

    Plant Cell Structure

    • Plasmodesmata allow materials to pass from the cytoplasm of one plant cell to the cytoplasm of an adjacent cell.
    • The cell wall is the extracellular structure that distinguishes plant cells from animal cells.
    • There is no key role of collagen in plant tissues, as collagen is a protein found in animal connective tissue.
    • The main component of the plant cell wall is cellulose.
    • Plasmodesmata facilitate the exchange of molecules between adjacent plant cells.
    • The apical surface of a cell is involved in secretion and absorption.
    • Plant cells are distinguished from animal cells by the presence of a cell wall, which is composed of cellulose.
