Answer 2

The correct answer is option A- Haberlandt

Heberlandt introduced the new terminologies for the meristematic zones derived from apical meristem.  

These terms are such as:

Protoderm instead of dermatogens

Ground meristem instead of periblem

Probambium instead of plerome

Meristematic zones are the regions, where new cells are grown and differentiate into specialized structures.
