Answer

C) cell wall

Explanation

The question is asking for the name of the structure in plant cells that is made of cellulose and provides rigidity to the plant. Cellulose is a complex carbohydrate that forms the main structural component of the plant cell wall. The cell wall is the structure that surrounds the plant cell membrane and provides support and protection to the cell. It is not made of chloroplasts, which are involved in photosynthesis, nor is it the cell membrane, which is a flexible structure that surrounds the cell's contents. Lysosomes are organelles found in animal cells and are involved in breaking down waste materials and cellular debris. Therefore, the correct answer is the cell wall.
