In wood strong chains of cellulose and lignin are aligned in rows and layers are held in place by hydrogen bonds?

Yes, cellulose and lignin are two key components of wood. Cellulose provides structural strength due to its long, aligned chains, while lignin acts as a kind of 'glue' to hold the layers of cellulose together. The hydrogen bonds between cellulose molecules help reinforce the overall structure of the wood.
