(d) parenchymatous cells specialized for this purpose
Explanation:
The xerophytic plants conserve water by storing it in parenchymatous cells specialized for this purpose. Xerophytes plants are specially adapted to succeed in an arid climate. They are typically able to withstand long periods of drought and the drying effects of desert winds. Some plants have adapted to arid lands by developing the ability to store water.
