Solution
The correct option is A Endodermis .
The endodermis is the central, innermost layer of cortex in some land plants. It is made of compact living cells surrounded by an outer ring of endodermal cells that are impregnated with hydrophobic substances (Casparian strip) to restrict apoplastic flow of water to the inside. The endodermis is the boundary between the cortex and the stele. The epidermis cells is a single-layered group of cells that covers plants leaves, flowers, roots and stems. It forms a boundary between the plant and the external environment. The exodermis is a layer of cells from the outermost layer of the cortex of many angiosperms. Hypodermis is the outermost cell layer of the cortex of plants. It is also known as exodermis.
