Solution

The correct option is A Tangential
Cambium cells are the layer of delicate meristematic tissue found between the phloem and the xylem. Present in the stems and roots, the division of these cells gives rise to new phloem on the outside and new xylem on the inside thus bringing about the secondary growth in plants and forming the annual rings. These cells divide tangentially in a plane parallel to the surface of the stem.
