Solution

The correct answer is Option is C) cell dedifferentiation

The phenomenon of regeneration of permanent tissue to become meristematic is called dedifferentiation.

  • Dedifferentiation is the process by which a differentiated cell regains the ability to divide into new cells under specific circumstances.
  • Cork cambium, wound cambium, and interfascicular vascular cambium are examples of secondary meristems which are always produced through dedifferentiation.
