Solution

The correct option is B Around bacteriods
A single enlarged, non - motile bacterium is referred to as bacteroids. These results in proliferation of tissues, which eventually results in forming a root nodule. A typical root nodule contains several thousand bacteroids. The nodule contains a protein called leghemoglobin which gives nodules a pink color.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
