Solution
The correct option is D Aleurone layer
Maize is a monoctyledonous endospermic seed. In monocotyledonous
endospermic seed, endosperm is surrounded by a special one- cell thick layer,
called aleurone layer. The cells of aleurone layer are filled with
proteinaceous aleurone grains which play an important role at the time of
germination. So, the correct answer is 'Aleurone layer'.
