Question:

Arrange the following in the sequence you would find them in a plant starting from the periphery – phellem, phellogen, phelloderm.

Solution:

Phellem → Phellogen → Phelloderm

Phellem or cork is the outermost layer, followed by phellogen (cork cambium) which in turn is followed by phelloderm (secondary cortex).
