Solution

The correct option is D Sugar
Sugar is found in the form of stored food in bulbs like onion and garlic.
Starch is the stored food in the rhizomes, tubers and underground stem.
Protein is stored in the form of globulins (immunoglobulins) in our blood.
In CAM plants, malic acid is stored in the vacuoles of the cell and is used further as a source of carbon dioxide for the C3 cycle.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
