Correct Answer: Bark


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Explanation :

Shrub is a small, woody plant, typically with multiple stems and a shorter height than a tree.

Rind refers to the tough, outer layer or bark of a fruit, vegetable, or tree.

Peel refers to the outer skin or covering of a fruit or vegetable, often removed before eating or cooking.

Bark refers to the tough protective outer sheath of the trunk, branches, and twigs of a tree or woody shrub. Thus, the outer protective layer of a tree is called "bark".
