Solution

The correct option is B Cytokinin
The vascular cambium is located between the xylem and the phloem in the stem and root of the vascular plant and is the source of both the secondary xylem growth and the secondary phloem growth.
Cytokinins are found in sites of active cell division in plants and promote vascular cambium growth.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
