In a bacterial cell diagram, the structure typically represented by the letter B is likely to be the ribosome (b). Ribosomes are essential for protein synthesis and are found throughout the cytoplasm of bacterial cells. If you have the diagram specifically in front of you, please refer to the labeling context to confirm, but normally "B" is associated with ribosomes in such diagrams.
