Solution

The correct option is D Chondrocytes in lacuna
Elastic cartilage is present in and around the nose and its tip. Chondroblast cells secrete components of extracellular matrix, chondrocytes are mature form of chondroblast cells that remain embedded in cartilage lacuna. The number of chondrocytes in cartilage determine how flexible and bendy a cartilage can be.
So, the correct answer is 'Chondrocytes in lacuna'.
