Solution

The correct option is B conjunctive tissue
The tissue present between xylem and phloem in roots is called conjunctive tissue.

The endodermis is the innermost layer of the cortex and is made up of parenchymatous cells.

Pith is centrally located parenchymatous tissue in roots and stems.

The pericycle is ground tissue that helps in the formation of vascular cambium in roots and thus helps in secondary growth.
