A
Bacteria
B
Fungi
C
Virus
D
Animal
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There are a wide variety of inclusion bodies in different types of cells. In prokaryotic cells, they are mainly formed to store reserve materials. In animal cells, they store fats and sugars that are ready for cellular respiration and in plant cells, they store granules of materials like glycogen, starch, etc.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) are functional, non-toxic amyloids occurring in recombinant bacteria showing analogies with secretory granules of the mammalian endocrine system.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bacterial inclusion bodies function as vehicles for dendritic cell-mediated T cell responses. Immunogenic antigens for vaccination are often created through the production of recombinant proteins using Escherichia coli.

Detailed explanation-4: -Solution: In prokaryotes, the reserve food materials such Glycogen, Cyanophycean starch and Polyphosphates are stored as inclusion bodies.
