I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. If you observed a cell under a microscope and saw that it contained a plasma membrane, cell wall, and ribosomes, but no other organelles, you can conclude that its a prokaryotic cell.

I believe it would be a prokaryotic cell, as although plant cells have all of the mentioned but they also possess additional organelles.
