Answer:

The main structural component of plant cell walls is cellulose  which is a type of carbohydrate made up of a long chain of glucose molecules (a polysaccharide).

Explanation:

The plant cell walls are composed of cellulose, which is a structural carbohydrate made up of a long chain of glucose molecules (β linked D-glucose units). It is a polysaccharide like starch, but the starch molecule is flexible and the cellulose molecule is rigid. Each of these polysaccharide chains is connected together by hydrogen bonds. Microfibrils are formed by arranging some of these polysaccharide chains in parallel arrays. Due to the presence of hydrogen bonds, the microfibrils are extremely tough and inflexible. This property of cellulose provides strength and rigidity to the plant cell walls.

The spread of roots around a plant is usually greater than the depth of the roots.
valina [46]
The spread of roots around a plant is usually greater than the depth of the roots is a completely false statement. It totally depends on the type of plant in regards to the type of root it will have. Normally there are two kinds of roots and they are taproot and fibrous roots. In case of taproots the main root goes downwards and smaller roots branches out of it. In case of taproots, it is true that the spread of roots is smaller than the depth of the roots. In case of fibrous roots, the spread of roots is greater than that of the depth of the roots. A wig tree is an example of a plant having taproot. in the wig tree the root can go to a depth of around 120 meters.
