A. A - Plasmodesmata, B - Rough endoplasmic reticulum, C - Golgi apparatus, D - Mitochondrion, E - Ribosomes

B. A - Desmosome, B - Rough endoplasmic reticulum, C - Golgi apparatus, D - Mitochondrion, E - Ribosomes

C. A - Plasmodesmata, B - Smooth endoplasmic reticulum, C - Golgi apparatus, D - Mitochondrion, E - Ribosomes

D. A - Tight junction, B - Rough endoplasmic reticulum, C - Golgi apparatus, D - Mitochondrion, E -Ribosomes

Correct Answer :

A. A - Plasmodesmata, B - Rough endoplasmic reticulum, C - Golgi apparatus, D - Mitochondrion, E - Ribosomes


In the given figure of plant cell, the structure marked as A, B, C, D and E are respectively plasmodesmata, rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, mitochondrion and ribosomes. Plant cells are eukaryotic cell and have certain distinguishing features, including chloroplasts (Photosynthesis takes place) cell walls (allow plants to have strong, upright structures) and intracellular vacuoles (help regulate how cells handle water and storage of other molecules).
