Answer: E. Triglyceride

Explanation:

Abnormality in the normal metabolic process may lead to the accumulation of the triglycerides in the hepatocytes of the liver. These can be seen as the clear spaces in the cytoplasm of the liver cells. This can be diagnosed with the routine H and E stain test.

The calcium shows dark blue to purple color, hemosiderin shows yellow brown color, lipofuscin shows golden brown color.
