Solution

The correct option is B Lenticels
  • The bark of the woody stem is a product of secondary growth in plants. Plants require gases like carbon dioxide and oxygen for their life processes.
  • For gaseous exchange apart from stomata in the leaves gaps are formed in woody stems during development. Such openings are called as lenticels.

Therefore, option B is correct.
