Solution
The correct option is A Primary meristem
Meristem is the type of tissue that contains undifferentiated cells. They give rise to different organs of a plant. They are present in zones where growth takes place. There are two types of meristems, primary and secondary meristems. The primary meristem is responsible for the production of vascular cambium, cork cambium, and secondary tissues. Procambium, a type of primary meristem give rise to secondary meristematic tissue. The secondary meristem is responsible for the production of permanent tissues. Thus, the correct answer is 'Primary meristem.'
