Solution

The correct option is A Conifers
The conifers are cone-bearing seed plants. Most are trees, some are shrubs. They are formally the division Pinophyta or Coniferophyta.
Conifers are gymnosperms. They are cone-bearing seed plants with vascular tissue. All living conifers are woody plants, the great majority being trees.
Resin canals, sometimes referred to as resin ducts, are unique to conifer. They are technically not individual cells, but are actually open, tube-like spaces bordered by special cells, that have the ability to secrete pitch or resin into the neighboring opening (canal). One of the apparent purposes of these ducts is to protect and seal up a wound by exuding resin to cover the damaged area of the tree.
