(a) : In the given figure, companion cells are labelled as ' $C$ '. These cells are narrow, elongated and thin-walled living cells. They lie on the sides of sieve tubes and are closely associated with them through compound plasmodesmata. Companion cells are replaced by modified parenchyma cells (albuminous cells) in non-flowering plants. 'A' represents sieve pore and 'B' represents sieve tube cell.
