The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Terms**: - Belt's corpuscles are gland-like structures found in certain plants. - Leghaemoglobin is a protein that is involved in oxygen transport in plants, particularly in root nodules. 2. **Identifying the Plants with Belt's Corpuscles**: - Belt's corpuscles are found in the stipules of plants. - One of the key examples of plants that have Belt's corpuscles is from the family **Mimosaceae**. - A specific example is the genus **Acacia**, which has these structures. 3. **Identifying the Plants with Leghaemoglobin**: - Leghaemoglobin is primarily found in legumes. - Legumes belong to the family **Fabaceae**, which is also known as **Papilionaceae**. - This protein is present in the root nodules of legumes and is crucial for nitrogen fixation. 4. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, Belt's corpuscles are found in plants belonging to the **Mimosaceae** family (like Acacia), and leghaemoglobin is found in plants belonging to the **Fabaceae** family (like legumes). 5. **Final Answer**: - Belt's corpuscles are found in **Mimosaceae** and leghaemoglobin is found in **Fabaceae** (or Papilionaceae). ---
