Solution

The correct option is C Cellulose
Cellophane is derived from cellulose. Cellophane is made by dissolving plant fiber in alkali and carbon disulfide to create something called viscose. The viscose is then reconverted to cellulose in cellophane form after a sulfuric acid and sodium sulfate bath. So, the correct answer is option C.
