The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the thread-like structure in the cell that was first described by Porter. We need to identify which of the given options fits this description. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Chromatin Reticulum**: This refers to the complex of DNA and proteins found in the nucleus, but it was not first described by Porter. - **Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)**: This is a network of membrane-bound cavities in the cell and was indeed first described by Porter. - **Golgi Complex**: This structure was first observed by Camillo Golgi, not Porter. - **Microfibrils**: These are structural components but are not specifically associated with Porter. 3. **Identifying the Correct Answer**: Since the endoplasmic reticulum was first described by Porter, it is the correct answer to the question. 4. **Conclusion**: The thread-like structure in the cell first described by Porter is the **Endoplasmic Reticulum**. **Final Answer**: Endoplasmic Reticulum ---
