Solution

The correct option is C Compound
The form of starch grains may be spherical, ellipsoidal, ovoid, lentiform or where closely packed or crowded together, polyhedral. The center vacuole tends to be a very small circle. Rice grains tend to clump in groups of a few to over a hundred in ovaloid clusters. So, starch grains in rice are compound. Thus, option D is correct.
