Solution
The correct option is B Lenticles
Lenticular transpiration occurs in woody stems, which possess lenticles. They are the horizontal striations which occur between the dead cells of the periderm. These are dead and are exterior to bark. As the layer above the bark is dead, these lenticels help in the exchange of gases through dead areas. So, the correct option is 'Lenticles'.
