Solution

The correct option is D Trichome
Trichome is multicellular structure found in blue-green algae, that forms due to repeated cell division in single plane at right angles to the main axis of filament.
Hyphae are long branching filaments of fungus which help in vegetative growth and collectively form a mycelium.
Colony means a cluster of microorganisms growing on a solid medium.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
