Solution

The correct option is C Lacking chloroplasts

Two or four subsidiary cells are found surrounding the pair of guard cells. Subsidiary cells do not consist of chloroplasts. They provide support for the functioning of guard cells in the epidermis.
So the correct option is ' lacking chloroplasts'.
