    for most of the mechanical strength of the cell wall?
    A Heparin Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Glycogen Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Chitin Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Cellulose Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The primary structural component responsible for most of the mechanical strength of the cell wall is cellulose . Cellulose is a complex carbohydrate, or polysaccharide, consisting of long chains of glucose molecules. These chains form microfibrils, which are strong and rigid, providing the cell wall with its tensile strength and structural integrity.
