Solution

The correct option is B Endodermis
Casparian strip is a band of cell wall material deposited on the radial and transverse walls of the endodermis. It is chemically different from the rest of the cell wall. Casparian strip is made of suberin and sometimes lignin. It blocks the passive flow of materials, such as water and solutes into the stele of a plant.
