Solution

The correct option is C Phellem - Endodermis - Pericycle - Phloem

Phellem is the outmost layer of cork cambium, which is suberised. Therefore, this is the first layer to be found. The endodermis is one the layer of cortex, which comes under the phellem. The pericycle is the layer that comes between endodermis and vascular bundles.

The dicotyledonous stem has a conjoint, collateral vascular bundle, whereas xylem is internal and phloem is external. Hence, phloem is to be encountered after the pericycle. Hence, option C is correct.
