2. mitochondrion

3. cytoplasm

4. nucleus

The plasma membrane consists mainly of

1. phospholipids embedded in a protein bilayer

2. proteins embedded in a phospholipid bilayer

3. proteins embedded in a polymer of glucose molecules

4. proteins embedded in a carbohydrate bilayer

Middle lamella is mainly composed of

1. hemicellulose

2. muramic acid

3. calcium pectate

4. phosphoglycerides

Cytoskeleton is made up of

1. calcium carbonate granules

2. callose deposits

3. cellulosic microfibrils

4. proteinaceous filaments

Polysome is formed by

1. several ribosomes attached to a single mRNA

2. many ribosomes attached to a strand of endoplasmic reticulum

3. a ribosome with several subunits 

4. ribosomes attached to each other in a linear arrangement
