Solution

The correct option is C Vessels
Vessels are joined end to end to form continuous tubular structures with perforations in their cross walls. Water and minerals are efficiently conducted through these perforations. Vessels are present in most of the angiosperms. Hence, the wood can be termed as porous due to these perforations.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
