Solution

The correct option is D Sphaerosome
  • Spherosomes or Oleosomes are small cell organelles bounded by a single membrane which take part in storage and synthesis of lipids.
  • Spherosomes are found in plants.
  • Spherosomes arise from the endoplasmic reticulum and are surrounded by a phospholipid monolayer.
  • Hence Phospholipid bilayer is not found in the membrane of Sphaerosome.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Sphaerosome'.
