(D) In woody dicotyledonous plants,secondary growth leads to the formation of heartwood (duramen) and sapwood (alburnum). Heartwood is the central,non-functional,dark-colored part of the wood,while sapwood is the peripheral,functional,lighter-colored part. Monocotyledonous plants,such as the palm,do not undergo secondary growth due to the absence of a vascular cambium. Therefore,they do not produce secondary xylem,and consequently,no differentiation between heartwood and sapwood occurs in them.

In which of the following is the differentiation between heartwood and sapwood not observed?
