Solution

The correct option is D Both A and C
Robert Hooke performed the experiment in which the cells of the matchstick and cork were observed under the microscope. These cells were rectangular shaped cells. There was no nucleus, no cytoplasm and deposition was found on the walls of these cells. These were referred to as the dead cells which are sclerenchymatous cells found in the plant tissues.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
