Final answer:

To describe plant cells, we change 'small vacuoles' to 'large central vacuole,' as this is characteristic of plant cells for storage and maintaining rigidity.

Step-by-step explanation:

To describe the cells of organisms in the plant kingdom, we would select option D) change small vacuole to large central vacuole. This is because plant cells typically have a large central vacuole that plays a significant role in maintaining cell rigidity by storing various substances like pigments, nutrients, and waste products. The other options would incorrectly describe plant cells, as they are eukaryotic (therefore retaining option B) eukaryote), contain mitochondria for cellular respiration (so not A) remove mitochondria), and have a cell wall made of cellulose for structural support (thus not C) change cell wall to cell membrane).
