Explanation
Glyoxysomes are single-membrane organelles found especially in germinating oil-rich seeds, where their enzymes convert fatty acids into substances that can be used to form carbohydrates. They are not present throughout the entire life of a plant, and their abundance changes with development. Students may choose option b because it gives a specific distribution claim, but the major incorrect statement is c, which incorrectly describes their lifelong presence.
