C. Sclerenchyma
Step-by-step solution
The regions in plants which undergo active cell division are known as meristems. The parenchyma, sclerenchyma and collenchymas are simple tissues, where the parenchyma is majorly found within organs. The collenchyma is found in patches or homogenous layers in layers below the epidermis in dicot plants and the sclerenchyma tissue consists of narrow cells with thick walls usually spherical, oval or cylindrical with narrow cavities.
