The correct answer is: Cork - Phellem
The above question identifies the alternate name for the first part. Consequently, cork-phellem is the right pair because cork is also known as phellem. While bark & periderm is incorrect because bark is composed of periderm as a layer which is in turn made of cork, cork cambium is also called as phellogen and phelloderm (commonly also known as Secondary cortex.)
