Solution

The correct option is B Callus deposition
The thickened mass that develops at the base of a cut or around a wound is known as callus. When a portion of the plant is cut away or removed, parenchyma tissue (callus) fills the space. The parenchyma is generally produced by the cambium cells.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
