Solution

The correct option is D Neriun
A laticifer is a type of elongated secretory cell found in the leaves and/or stems of plants that produce latex and rubber as secondary metabolites. Non-articulated laticifers begin their growth from the meristematic tissue of the embryo, termed the laticifer initial, and can exhibit continual growth throughout the lifetime of the plant. These can be traced in Nerium. Articulated laticifiers are present in Compositae, Convolvulaceae, Papilionaceae and Cruciferae. So, Papaver, Hevea and Achras contains articulated laticifiers.
So, the correct answer is option A.
