Question 5 of 19intermediate🔧 ApplyDiagram3 marks

Draw a well-labelled schematic diagram of a plant or an animal cell using these clues —

(i)

Nucleus appears as a dark and round body inside the cell.

Answer

The nucleus is drawn and labelled as a dark and round body inside the cell.

(ii)

ER spreads like a network of extended nuclear envelope.

Answer

The ER is drawn and labelled spreading like a network extending from the nuclear envelope.

(iii)

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are rod shaped.

Answer

The mitochondria and chloroplasts are drawn and labelled as rod-shaped structures.

Explanation

The question asks for a schematic diagram of a plant cell (inferred from the mention of chloroplasts) using specific structural clues. For (i), the nucleus must be depicted as a prominent, dark, and round structure. For (ii), the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) must be shown as a network that is continuous with/extends from the nuclear envelope. For (iii), both mitochondria and chloroplasts must be drawn in a rod shape. A complete diagram would also include the cell wall, plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and a large central vacuole as per the context.
