Assertion (A): | Sclerenchyma provides mechanical support to organs and is usually dead and without protoplasts. |
Reason (R): | Sclerenchyma consists of long, narrow cells with thick and lignified cell walls having a few or numerous pits. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True, but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False, but (R) is True. |
Statement I: | When xylem and phloem within a vascular bundle are arranged in an alternate manner along the different radii, the arrangement is called radial, such as in roots. |
Statement II: | In conjoint type of vascular bundles, the xylem and phloem are jointly situated along the same radius of vascular bundles. |
Assertion (A): | Phloem in angiosperms is composed of sieve tube elements, companion cells, phloem parenchyma, and phloem fibres. |
Reason (R): | Gymnosperms have albuminous cells and sieve cells but lack sieve tubes and companion cells. |
