Solution

The correct option is B Chloroplast
The inner stem cells and underground organs, such as the root system or bulb, contain no chloroplasts. Because no sunlight reaches these areas.
Fruit and flower cells typically do not contain chloroplasts because their primary functions are reproduction and dispersal.
