James is making models of plant and animal cells using objects supplied by his teacher to represent organelles. for one cell, he will place the objects in a shoebox. first he fills a balloon with water and places it in the shoe box. he also drops a handful of marbles into the box. which statement most likely describes the structures he has represented so far? he is making an animal cell. the box is the cell membrane, and the balloon represents the large vacuole. the marbles are the endoplasmic reticulum. he is making a plant cell. the box is the cell wall, and the balloon represents the large vacuole. the marbles are the tiny ribosomes. he is making a plant cell. the box is the cell wall, and the balloon represents the nucleus. the marbles are the centrioles. he could be making either a plant or animal cell. the box is the cell wall, and the balloon represents the large vacuole. the marbles are the centrioles.

He is making a plant cell. The box is the cell wall, and the balloon represents the large vacuole. The marbles are the tiny ribosomes.

Explanation:

The plant cell, as well as the animal, is eukaryotic, that is, it has nucleus delimited by nuclear membrane (library). In addition to this feature, these cells have a plasma membrane and cytoplasm, structures common to any cell.

Some organelles and structures are shared with other cell types, such as mitochondria, golgiense complex, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, and peroxisomes. Other structures, however, are restricted to the plant cell, that is, they are found only in this type of cell. These structures are: cell wall, plastids and cell juice vacuole.

Because of these particular organelles of the plant cell, it is possible to see that James created a structure to represent a plant cell. The box is the cell wall and the balloon represents the large vacuole. The marbles are the small ribosomes.
