Solution

The correct option is D Stem of Zea mays
Secretory cavities formed by the disintegration of cells in a tissue are called lysigenous cavity. In monocot stems(maize), some of the protoxylem cells disintegrate and form into a lysigenous cavity. it is called protoxylem lacuna.
So, the correct option is 'stem of Zea mays'.
