Solution

The correct option is D General cortex
All the tissues in a plant which are not dermal or vascular comprise the ground tissue system. The cortex is the thickest layer of the ground tissue system since it consists of several layers of undifferentiated cells, mainly parenchyma cells.
Pericycle is the region surrounding the vascular bundles. It may have single or double layer of cells.
