Solution

The correct option is B Nerve cells
A Nissl body, also known as Nissl substance and Nissl material, is a large granular body found in neurons. These granules are of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) with rosettes of free ribosomes, and are the site of protein synthesis.

These are very useful for protein synthesis and also help to transport these proteins to the part known as cyton.

Hence, the correct answer is "nerve cells".
