Which one of the following is present outside the plasma membrane but inside the cell wall?
Correct answer: C. Lomasome
- A. Sphaerosome
- B. Peroxisome
- C. Lomasome
- D. Golgi body
Explanation
'Lomasomes' are present outside the plasma membrane but inside the cell wall. They are membranous structures, often containing internal membranes, located between the plasma membrane and cell wall of plant cells. Lomasomes appear to be accumulations of ejected material, between the plasmalemma and cell wall that has become sequestered by the deposition of wall material. Thus, the correct answer is option 'C'.
