Solution

The correct option is B Single layered
In a young dicot stem, the cambium is single layered. It is made by the intrafascicular cambium present within the vascular bundles and the dedifferentiation of the parenchyma cells of the medullary rays between the vascular bundles, called interfascicular cambium. Their combination gives a circular cambium that produces xylem elements on the inner side and the phloem elements on the outer side.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Single layered'
