- mitochondria
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
In a plant cell vacuole may be defined as a non-living reservoir, bounded by a differentially or selectively permeable membrane, the tonoplast. It is filled with a highly concentrated solution called vacuolar sap or cell sap which contains many dissolved solutes such as organic acids, soluble carbohydrates, soluble nitrogenous compounds as nitrates, enzyme, tannins, chlorides, phosphates, amino acids, alkaloids and anthocyanin pigments.

Cells
- A device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy is called an electric cell. To an electric circuit, the battery provides the constant electromotive force.
- Each cell comprises 2 half cells which are connected in series by a conductive electrolyte containing anions and cations:
- One-half cell is made up of electrolyte and a negative electrode called an anion.
- The other half cell is made up of electrolytes and a positive electrode called a cathode.
- Redox reactions take place simultaneously.
- While charging, cations are reduced at the cathode, and anions are oxidized at the anode.
- Electrodes do not join each other as they are electrically connected by the electrolyte.
