How is the supply of vascular cambium maintained?

How is the supply of vascular cambium maintained?
– by the differentiation of apical meristem
– by the differentiation of secondary xylem
– by the division of its cells
– by the differentiation of cork
– by the differentiation of secondary phloem

The supply of vascular cambium is maintained by the division of its cells. The vascular cambium is a lateral meristem that continuously divides to produce new cells, which then differentiate into secondary xylem (wood) and secondary phloem, ensuring the ongoing growth and thickening of stems and roots.
