The series of events leading to chemical and structural alterations of an existing cell wall that can result in loosening, increased extensibility or disassembly. The series of events that occur during cell growth that result in chemical or structural changes to existing cell walls of the type composed chiefly of cellulose and pectin. An example of this is found in Arabidopsis thaliana. The process by which a cell irreversibly increases in size over time by accretion and biosynthetic production of matter similar to that already present. A process that results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of the cell wall, the rigid or semi-rigid envelope lying outside the cell membrane of plant, fungal and most prokaryotic cells, maintaining their shape and protecting them from osmotic lysis. The series of events resulting in chemical or structural changes to existing cell walls and contribute to multidimensional cell growth. The process by which a cell irreversibly increases in size in two or three [spatial] dimensions or along two or three axes.
