A moss cell is placed in culture with an unknown chemical substance. The cell appears able to "divide," because it is observed to grow and replicate its internal organelles and nuclei, but it does not form primary cell walls. It appears that the substance has affected the synthesis of the polysaccharides that compose the cell wall. Which organelle has possibly been targeted by the unknown chemical?
