Heyaa!!!
your options are : cork, cambius, xylem , phloem
cork is the odd one here because others are the living parts of a plant and cork is a dead tissue.
cambium in plants, is a tissue layer that provides partially undifferentiated cells for plant growth. It is found in the area between xylem and phloem. It forms parallel rows of cells, which result in secondary tissues.
The basic function of xylem is to transport water from roots to stems and leaves, but it also transports nutrients.
Phloem is the living tissue in vascular plants that transports the soluble organic compounds made during photosynthesis and known as photosynthates, in particular the sugar sucrose, to parts of the plant where needed.
A mature cork cell is non-living and has cell walls that are composed of a waxy substance that is highly impermeable to gases and water called suberin.
hope it helps
