Solution

The correct option is D Dermis
Just beneath the stratum germinativum, there are present many scattered pigment cells (chromatophores) in the stratum spongiosum. The pigmentation of amphibians is determined by specialized cells called chromatophores. Chromatophores are cells that contain or produce pigments or reflect light in order to display a certain color.
So the correct answer is 'Dermis'
