The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Context**: The question asks how a dye injected into a plant cell can enter an adjacent cell. This implies that there must be a connection or pathway between the two cells. 2. **Identifying Cell Connections**: In plant cells, there are various structures that can facilitate communication and transport between adjacent cells. The key structures to consider are: - Microtubules - Microfilaments - Plasmodesmata - Tight junctions 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Microtubules**: These are part of the cytoskeleton and primarily provide structural support and transport within the cell but do not connect adjacent cells. - **Microfilaments**: Similar to microtubules, these are involved in cell shape and movement but do not facilitate intercellular transport. - **Plasmodesmata**: These are specialized channels that connect the cytoplasm of adjacent plant cells, allowing for the transport of substances between them. - **Tight Junctions**: These are connections in animal cells that prevent leakage between cells, but they do not allow for the transport of substances. 4. **Conclusion**: The most suitable option for the dye to enter an adjacent cell is through **plasmodesmata**. This structure allows for the direct transfer of small molecules and signals between plant cells. 5. **Final Answer**: The dye injected into a plant cell might be able to enter an adjacent cell through **plasmodesmata**.
