The correct option is C Extrastelar tissue

Secondary growth refers to addition of extra amount of tissue in the stelar and extrastelar region due to activity of lateral meristem i.e., vascular cambium (fascicular cambium) and cork cambium respectively. Secondary growth in extra stelar zone extends from hypodermis to endodermis and made up of primary tissues during primary growth.

So, the correct answer is 'Extrastelar tissue.'
