The form of carbon used for absorbing poisonous gases and purifying noble gases is activated carbon. Activated carbon is a highly porous form of carbon that has a large surface area, allowing it to adsorb (not absorb) various gases, liquids, or impurities. Thus, Elm wood is a good source of activated carbon. Therefore, wood charcoal is the right answer.
