Solution

The correct option is D Thylakoids
Quantasomes are composed of lipids and proteins that include various photosynthetic pigments and redox carriers. These are the particles found in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts in which photosynthesis takes place. They are embedded in a paracrystalline array on the surface of thylakoid discs in chloroplasts.
So, the correct option is 'Thylakoids'.
