Read the different components from (a) to (d) in the list given below and tell the correct order of the components with reference to their arrangement from outer side to inner side in a woody dicot stem
(a) Secondary cortex
(b) Wood
(c) Secondary phloem
(d) Phellem
The correct order is:
1. (a), (b), (d), (c) | 2. (d), (a), (c), (b) |
3. (d), (c), (a), (b) | 4. (c), (d), (b), (a) |
Vascular bundles in monocotyledons are considered closed because
1. Cambium is absent
2. There are no vessels with perforations
3. Xylem is surrounded all around by phloem
4. A bundle sheath surrounds each bundle

A major characteristic of the monocot root is the presence of
1. Scattered vascular bundles
2. Vasculature without cambium
3. Cambium sandwiched between phloem and xylem along the radius
4. Open vascular bundles
