Solution

The correct option is A
Parenchyma cells

Parenchyma cells have thin walls. They are live cells. They are usually loosely packed, and large intercellular spaces are found in this tissue. Therefore, the slide consists of parenchyma cells.
Sclerenchyma is the tissue which makes the plant, hard and stiff. Aerolar tissue and epithelium are animals tissues.
