In the following simplified diagram of a plant cell, five parts/organelles are marked from 1 to 5: Which one of the following correctly represents the above parts/organelles?

In a typical plant cell diagram, the outermost rigid layer is the cell wall (1), which provides structural support and protection [1]. Immediately inside the cell wall is the cell membrane (2), a semipermeable layer that regulates the entry and exit of materials [2]. The large, fluid-filled central space is the vacuole (3), which maintains turgor pressure and stores nutrients [1]. The network of tubules often shown near the nucleus is the endoplasmic reticulum (4), responsible for transporting materials within the cell. Finally, the prominent, membrane-bound organelle containing genetic material is the nucleus (5). This sequence (cell wall, cell membrane, vacuole, endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus) accurately identifies the standard anatomical arrangement of plant cell organelles as described in biological texts [1].
