1. A bacterial cell is a prokaryotic cell and therefore does not contain membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus or the endoplasmic reticulum.
2. The structures found in a bacterial cell include:
   - **Plasmid ($$B$$)**: Small, circular DNA molecules that replicate independently of the bacterial chromosome.
   - **Cell wall ($$D$$)**: Provides structural support and protection.
   - **Pilus/pili ($$F$$)**: Hair-like appendages that help in adhesion and sometimes in genetic exchange.
   - **Nucleoid ($$G$$)**: The region where the bacterial chromosome is located.
3. The following options are not components of a bacterial cell:
   - **Endoplasmic reticulum ($$C$$)**: A membrane-bound organelle found only in eukaryotic cells.
   - **Nucleus ($$E$$)**: A membrane-bound organelle that contains the genetic material in eukaryotic cells.

Thus, the correct components of a bacterial cell are:
- $$B$$ Plasmid
- $$D$$ Cell wall
- $$F$$ Pilus/pili
- $$G$$ Nucleoid
The components of a bacterial cell are Plasmid, Cell wall, Pilus/pili, and Nucleoid.
