Solution

The correct option is D Procambium
  • Procambium is a plant tissue derived from the apical meristem which forms the vascular bundles or vascular tissues i.e, the xylem and the phloem.
  • These are continuously dividing cells (meristematic) which are cylindrical in shape and are responsible for producing the vascular tissues to form the primary xylem and primary phloem in mature stems and root.
  • It lies to the inner side the protoderm (forms the epidermis)
So, the correct answer is 'Procambium'
