Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plant cells have certain distinguishing features, including chloroplasts, cell walls, and intracellular vacuoles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Under the microscope, plant cells look like massive rectangular interlocking bricks. The cell wall of each cell is plainly seen surrounding it. The cell wall becomes rather thick and noticeable when colored. The cytoplasm is light in color, with a darkly pigmented nucleus at the cell’s edge.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle found in both eukaryotic animal and plant cells. It often appears as two interconnected sub-compartments, namely rough ER and smooth ER. Both types consist of membrane enclosed, interconnected flattened tubes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Note: The nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, chloroplasts and cell wall are organelles which can be seen under a light microscope.
