The rigid layers of fungal cell walls contain polysaccharides called chitin and glucans. The wall protects the fungus from desiccation and predators. Most fungal hyphae are divided into separate cells by endwalls called septa(e). These tiny holes in the septa allow the rapid flow of nutrients and small molecules from cell to cell along the hypha.
