AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the name of the isolated units of the Golgi apparatus specifically found in plant cells. 2. **Identifying the Golgi Apparatus**: The Golgi apparatus is an organelle involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids that have been synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum. 3. **Recognizing the Structure**: In plant cells, the Golgi apparatus is not typically found as a single structure but rather as isolated units. 4. **Defining Isolated Units**: The isolated units of the Golgi apparatus in plant cells are known to be distinct from the typical structure seen in animal cells. 5. **Identifying the Correct Term**: The correct term for these isolated units in plant cells is "Dictyosomes." They are stacks of membrane-bound cisternae that collectively form the Golgi apparatus. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the answer to the question is option B: Diptychosomes (Dictyosomes). **Final Answer**: The isolated units of Golgi apparatus found in plant cells are called **Diptychosomes**. ---
