Solution

The correct option is D Collenchyma
Collenchyma is the simple, living permanent tissue of the primary body. They have the capacity to expand and give a tensile strength to the body. They are chief found in the hypodermis of dicot stems (e.g., Cucurbita, etc.) and leaves. And are usually absent in roots (and in monocots).However, collenchymas may occur in root cortex if the root is exposed to the light.
So, the correct answer is 'Collenchyma.'
