Differentiation
Redifferentiation
Dedifferentiation
Maturation

Hide Solution

Verified By Collegedunia

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Dedifferentiation is the process by which mature, differentiated cells lose their specialized features and revert to a meristematic or less specialized state. In this case, parenchyma cells, which are mature and differentiated, undergo dedifferentiation to form cambium cells.

Step 2: Redifferentiation refers to the process where dedifferentiated cells take on a new, specialized function. This does not apply to the formation of interfascicular cambium.

Thus, the correct answer is (3) Dedifferentiation.
