The correct answer is " a plant with 90% ground tissue and 10% vascular tissue"

Ground tissue, also known as the parenchyma of the plant, is composed of cells with photosynthetic organelles (i. e. chloroplasts). These cells are actively producing sugars and starch from light, water, and carbon dioxide and stores it in the cells of the parenchyma. This makes the ground tissue nutritionally beneficial for humans because of the amount of energy in the ground tissue itself.
