Solution

The correct option is C Cycas
In Cycas, vascular bundle is conjoint, collateral, xylem is diploxylic, the larger patch is the centripetal xylem and the two lateral patches are centrifugal xylem. The secondary growth in a young stem is normal, but as it becomes older, new rings are formed giving rise concentric rings of secondary vascular tissues (polyxylic condition).
