The vascular cambium is located between
A
the meristem
B
the seed pod
C
the xylem and the pholem
D
the xylem and the root
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cambium which is located within the vascular bundles, that is between the primary phloem and primary xylem is called the intrafascicular cambium.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cambium is absent in the monocotyledons. The cambium is responsible for the secondary growth in the plants. It is a meristematic tissue present between the permanent tissues (xylem and phloem).

Detailed explanation-3: -It is found between the xylem and the phloem. Cambium (present in dicotyledons but not in monocotyledons) gives rise to secondary xylem and phloem. In both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants, the stem is mainly composed of basal tissue containing loosely arranged scattered cells.
