Solution

The correct option is B Cisternae
Thylakoids are membrane bound compartments inside chloroplast and cyanobacteria.
cisternae is a flattened membrane bound structure in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus.
Mesosomes are the invaginated structures formed by the localised infolding of the plasma membrane.
Periplasmic space is a concentrated gel like matrix in the space between the inner cytoplasmic membrane and the bacterial outer membrane
So the answer is cisternae option B
