c) Parenchyma
- Xylem and phloem are the two primary types of vascular tissue in plants, responsible for transporting water, minerals, and sugars.
- Cambium is a meristematic tissue that produces new xylem and phloem cells, contributing to the plant's secondary growth. It is closely associated with the vascular system.
- Parenchyma is a type of ground tissue, not vascular tissue. It performs various functions such as storage, photosynthesis, and secretion, and can be found throughout the plant, including within vascular bundles, but it is not a conducting vascular tissue itself.
