The correct option is B Parenchyma
Food or water is generally stored in plant cell in a cavity called as "vacuole". It is not present in all cells.
Scelerenchyma cells are dead and do not possess food vacuole. Hence, option A is incorrect.
Collenchyma cells do not possess food vacuole. Hence, option C is incorrect.
Parenchyma cells are alive at maturity and possess large vacuoles in which food is stored. Hence, option B is correct.
