(iii)Cell wallGolgi apparatus
(iv)LysosomeEndoplasmic reticulum

Answer:

Option (i) is correct.

Explanation:

Option (i): Leucoplast – Cell wall ✔ Correct

  • Leucoplasts are plastids that is found in plant cells mainly in roots that helps to store food materials such as starch, oils and proteins.
  • Animal cells do not have a cell wall.

Option (ii): Mitochondria – Ribosome ✘ Incorrect

  • Mitochondria are present in plant cells but ribosomes are present in both plant and animal cells.

Option (iii): Cell wall – Golgi apparatus ✘ Incorrect

  • Cell wall is present in plant cells but Golgi apparatus is present in both plant and animal cells.

Option (iv): Lysosome – Endoplasmic reticulum ✘ Incorrect
