The correct Answer is:
To identify the correct statement from the given options, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement Analysis**: - **Statement 1**: "Plasma membrane term was proposed by Schwan." - This statement is **correct**. The term "plasma membrane" was indeed proposed by Theodor Schwann, who is known for his contributions to cell theory. - **Statement 2**: "The layer around the animal cell was first noticed by Schwan." - This statement is **incorrect**. While Schwann contributed to cell theory, the observation of the cell membrane was made by other scientists before him. Schwann focused on the concept of the cell as a unit of life. - **Statement 3**: "In animal cells, membrane-less organelles are only ribosomes." - This statement is **incorrect**. Ribosomes are indeed membrane-less organelles, but lysosomes, which are also mentioned, are not membrane-less; they are membrane-bound organelles. Therefore, this statement is misleading. - **Statement 4**: "All the above statements are correct." - This statement is **incorrect** because statements 2 and 3 are wrong. 2. **Conclusion**: - Since only Statement 1 is correct, the answer to the question is that the correct statement is **Statement 1**. ### Final Answer: The correct statement is: **"Plasma membrane term was proposed by Schwan."**
