D) Collenchyma

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

The cambium is composed of similar cells that still possess the embryonic capacity for development and differentiation.

Additionally, they might grow inside callus tissues, which are enlargements that appear on wounds or injuries as they heal.

They divide to produce secondary xylem and phloem cells in the direction of the outside.
