Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pectin is a component of the extracellular matrix in plant cells that can form a sticky layer between adjacent cells and cement them together. Basement membrane and primary cell wall are not found in plant cells but rather in animal cells. Lignin is a component of the secondary cell wall, while the cuticle is a waxy layer on the surface of plant organs.
