Solution

The correct option is D Quercus suber
Quercus suber, commonly called as the cork oak, is a medium-sized, evergreen oak tree. It is the primary source of cork for wine bottle stoppers and other uses, such as cork flooring. It is native to southwest Europe and northwest Africa. Betula vulgaris (sugar beet), Eucalyptus and Calotropis procera (apple of sodom) are not source of bottle cork.
