parenchyma
B
colenchyma
C
aerenchyma
D
phloem
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Parenchyma cells and the meristematic cells are the living cells in the plants. Meristematic cells are however restricted to certain locations of the plant body. The rest of the living parts of the plants are therefore made of Parenchyma cells, which makes it the most abundant form of tissue in the plant body.

Detailed explanation-2: -While parenchyma is highly abundant in wood of angiosperm trees, we are still lacking a convincing ecological interpretation of its variability and role in whole-tree nutrient budgets.

Detailed explanation-3: -Parenchyma is the most common tissue present in all plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -Parenchyma is found in soft plant parts, including leaf mesophyll, flowers, fruits, and young stems. It is also present in petiole, ground tissue, leaf mesophyll, and also in vascular bundles.
