English: Cut-away drawing of the cell wall, including

the structural details of a bordered pit. The various layers of the cell wall are detailed at the top of the drawing, beginning with the middle lamella (ML). The next layer is the primary wall (P), and on the surface of this layer the random orientation of the cellulose microfibrils is detailed. Interior to the primary wall is the secondary wall in its three layers: S1, S2, and S3. The microfibril angle of each layer is illustrated, as well as the relative thickness of the layers. The lower portion of the illustration

shows bordered pits in both sectional and face view.
