Solution

The correct option is B

Cork cambium


The cork cambium is a meristematic tissue which develops to replace the outer cortical and epidermal cells. Its outer cells differentiate into the phellem and the inner cells differentiate into the phelloderm. The cork cambium along with the phellem and phelloderm is called the periderm.
