Solution

The correct option is C Lateral meristem
  • The lateral meristems or secondary meristems are found in all woody plants which consist of the vascular cambium and the cork cambium.
  • They allow the growth of plant girth-wise making it bigger in size.
  • This type of growth in vascular plants is called secondary growth.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Lateral meristem'.
