Answer:
Cork tissue arises from the B) Phellogen.
Explanation:
The cork tissue is a water resistant bark that arises due to the activity of the ‘cork cambium’ or the ‘phellogen’. It is a lateral tissue that helps the formation of the ‘secondary tissue’ that replaces the shoot and the root. It is mostly made by the ‘parenchyma cells’.
It is found in many plants as a part of the ‘epidermis’. The other names of the ‘cork cambium’ are bark cambium, pericambium and phellogen.
