plant cell

The focus of this site is the animal cell, but for the sake of completeness - generalized plant cell with walls of adjacent cells:

1. plasmodesma & pore (pl. plasmodesmata)
2. peroxisome
3. Golgi apparatus with vesicles
4. rough endoplasmic reticulum studded with ribosomes
5. nuclear membrane of nucleus
6. nucleolus
7. nuclear pore
8. mitochondrion
9. central vacuole
10. chloroplast
11. plasma membrane (purple)
12. secondary wall (blue)
13. primary wall (pink)
14. middle lamella (white) between cells
