Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Plasmodesrnata (singular- plasmodesma; Tangl, 1879; Strasburger, 1901) are cytoplasmic bridges between adjacent plant cells which develop in the minute pores of their walls. They form a protoplasmic continuum called symplast. Cell wall and intercellular spaces form a non-living component of the plant body called apoplast. A plasmodesma is 40-50 nm i diameter. It may be simple or branched.

Cell: The Unit of Life
- A cell is derived as the functional and structural unit of life. Every cell is surrounded by a cell membrane that dissects the external and internal environments of the cell. The interior environment of a cell is called the cytoplasm.
- It carries cellular machinery and structural elements. The nucleus is present in the center of the cell, which includes all the hereditary information of an organism. Some of the molecules present in the cell are protein, carbohydrates, starch, and sugar.
