Solution

The correct option is A Bundle sheath
  • The peroxisome is a single membrane-bound organelle which contains oxidative enzymes and is responsible for lipid production and oxidation reactions within the cell.
  • Peroxisomes are present in the photosynthetic cells of green plants (palisade cells of C3 plants and bundle sheath cells of C4 plants).
  • So, the correct answer is 'Bundle sheath'.
