Cell walls commonly are classified into two major types. This classification is based not on structural or biochemical differences;

A) primary walls and

B) secondary walls

i) walls formed during cell growth

ii) walls that are formed after cell enlargement stops

iii) multilayered walls that are strengthened and waterproofed by lignin

iv) Usually they are thin and simple, but sometimes may be thick and multilayered, such as those found in collenchyma or in the epidermis

v) highly specialized in structure and composition, reflecting the differentiated state of the cell
