Mucilage protects them from pathogens and animals. It acts as a lubricant . It holds the filaments together.

Cellulose cell wall is the rigid outer layer of the cell itself, giving structure and shape. This is what X is in the spirogyra filament.
Mucilage wall / sheath is a slimy layer outside the cell wall, secreted by the cells. It surrounds the filament but is not part of the cell wall itself

OPTION A IS CORRECT

Yes, Spirogyra does have a mucilage wall. Its cell wall is actually two-layered:

The outer layer is made of thick, slimy mucilage, which gives Spirogyra its slippery feel and helps protect it.

The inner layer is composed of cellulose, providing structural support.
