The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the minute pores that interrupt the cell wall. It is important to identify the correct terminology related to cell structure. 2. **Identifying the Cell Wall Structure**: The cell wall is a rigid outer layer found in plant cells, providing structure and protection. It is not a solid barrier; it has pores that allow for communication and transport between cells. 3. **Options Analysis**: - **Microtubules**: These are part of the cytoskeleton and are not related to the cell wall structure. - **Plasmodesmata**: These are indeed the minute pores that connect plant cells, allowing for the transport of materials and communication. - **Plasma Lemma**: This term refers to the plasma membrane, which is the inner membrane of the cell, not the cell wall. - **Microfibrils**: These are components of the cell wall but do not refer to the pores. 4. **Conclusion**: After analyzing the options, the correct answer is **Plasmodesmata**, as they are the structures that create small openings in the cell wall for intercellular communication. **Final Answer**: The cell wall is interrupted by minute pores called **Plasmodesmata**. ---
