There are three giant redwoods in California that a person can actually drive through. Imagine that you look up right when you are in the middle of driving through the tree and continue looking up until you exit out the other side.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct order of structures in a tree is pith (center), xylem (wood), vascular cambium (growth layer), phloem (inner bark), and cork (outer bark).

Choice D is the only option that follows this correct order.
