The image shows a diagram of a plant cell with blank boxes pointing to different parts. The task is to label each part correctly based on its position and structure in the cell.
Let’s go step by step:
1. Start from the outermost layer — that’s the
cell wall, which gives the plant cell its rigid shape.
2. Just inside the cell wall is the
cell membrane (also called plasma membrane), which controls what goes in and out.
3. The large empty space near the bottom is the
vacuole — it stores water and helps keep the cell firm.
4. The big round structure in the middle is the
nucleus — it holds DNA and controls the cell.
5. Inside the nucleus, you’ll see a smaller dark spot — that’s the
nucleolus.
6. Around the nucleus are folds — those are the
endoplasmic reticulum (ER). If they have dots (ribosomes) on them, it’s rough ER; if not, smooth ER. In this diagram, some have dots → so label accordingly.
7. Near the ER, there’s a stack of flat sacs — that’s the
Golgi apparatus (or Golgi body), which packages proteins.
8. Small oval shapes with lines inside are
mitochondria — they make energy for the cell.
9. Green-colored ovals with stacks inside (though here it’s black-and-white) are
chloroplasts — they do photosynthesis. Even without color, their stacked inner structure identifies them.
10. Tiny dots floating around or attached to ER are
ribosomes — they build proteins.
11. The jelly-like stuff filling the cell is
cytoplasm — where all organelles float.
Now match these labels to the arrows in the diagram:
- Outer thick boundary → Cell Wall
- Thin line just inside cell wall → Cell Membrane
- Large central sac → Vacuole
- Big circle with nucleolus inside → Nucleus
- Dark dot inside nucleus → Nucleolus
- Folded membranes with/without dots → Rough/Smooth ER
- Stack of pancakes → Golgi Apparatus
- Oval with internal lines → Mitochondrion
- Oval with internal stacks → Chloroplast
- Tiny dots → Ribosome
- Background material → Cytoplasm
Final Answer:
Cell Wall, Cell Membrane, Vacuole, Nucleus, Nucleolus, Endoplasmic Reticulum (Rough and Smooth), Golgi Apparatus, Mitochondrion, Chloroplast, Ribosome, Cytoplasm
