The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Concept of Pits**: - Pits are specialized structures found in the cell walls of plant cells. They are crucial for communication and transport between adjacent plant cells. 2. **Identifying the Types of Cell Walls**: - Plant cells have two types of cell walls: primary and secondary. The primary cell wall is formed first and is relatively thin, while the secondary cell wall is thicker and is formed later, often containing lignin. 3. **Defining Pits**: - Pits are depressions or thin areas in the cell walls that allow for the passage of materials and communication between adjacent cells. 4. **Analyzing the Options**: - The options provided are: - A) Depression in the primary walls - B) Depression in the secondary walls - C) Both A and B - D) Plasmodesmata connections - Based on the definition of pits, they are primarily associated with the secondary cell walls. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since pits are specifically associated with the depressions in the secondary walls of plant cells, the correct answer is **B) Depression in the secondary walls**.
