Solution

The correct option is C Meristematic cells
  • Plastids are a pigment containing double membrane-bound organelle which is the site of manufacture and storage of chemical compounds.
  • All plastids are derived from the proplastids (undifferentiated plastids).
  • Proplastids are present within the meristematic cells (meristematic regions) of the plant.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Meristematic cells'.
