Answer 2

Answer:

‘Intrafascicular cambium’ is situated in C) Inside the vascular bundles.

Explanation:

Intrafascicular cambium is a ‘primary meristem’ which is present in the’ vascular bundles’ of dicot stems. It is also called fascicular cambium. It starts growing as a primary meristem and later converts into a secondary meristem as secondary growth occurs.

It is present in between the ‘primary xylem’ and ‘primary phloem’. It produces the primary xylem on the ‘inside’ and the primary phloem on the ‘outside’. Thus the intrafascicular cambium resides within the ‘vascular bundles’.
