Identify the accurate explanation of mesosome.

It is

(1) a specialised structure of prokaryotic cell formed by extension of plasma membrane into the cytoplasm

(2) the middle layer of the prokaryotic cell wall

(3) the organelle of eukaryotic cell which helps in lipid synthesis

(4) the middle layer of eukaryotic cell wall.
