Explanation
Chloragogen cells of Pheretima, earthworms are yellowish appearing organelles. They store glycogen and have a role in neutralizing toxins similar to the way vertebrate liver does.
So, the correct option is 'Liver'.
A) Haemoglobin is a protein present in RBCs that carries oxygen. It is an iron-containing molecule that provides red colour to blood.
B) Haemocyanin is a molecule used by various invertebrates to carry oxygen throughout their bodies and uses copper instead of iron. It is found in snails, spiders, and lobsters. The presence of copper ions in blood gives blood a blue colour.
C) Erythrocruorin is an enormous molecule of haemoglobin found in annelids like Pheretima that is used to carry oxygen to various parts of the body.
