Solution

The correct option is B Sequoia
Sequoia has an average age of 2000 years because of favourable climatic conditions such as tannin in the bark, which makes it resistant to insects like termites. The thickness of the bark also helps protect the inner core of the tree from fire.
So, the correct option is 'Sequoia'.
