Read the different components from I to IV in the list given below and tell the correct order of the components with reference to their arrangement from the outer side to the inner side in a woody dicot stem.
I. | Secondary Cortex |
II. | Wood |
III. | Secondary phloem |
IV. | Phellem |
The correct order is:
1. | III, IV, II, I | 2. | I, II, IV, III |
3. | IV, I, III, II | 4. | IV, III, I, II |
You are given a fairly old piece of dicot stem and a dicot root. Which of the following anatomical structures will you use to distinguish between the two?
1. Secondary xylem
2. Secondary phloem
3. Protoxylem
4. Cortical cells
In barley stem, vascular bundles are:
1. open and scattered
2. closed and scattered
3. open and in a ring
4. closed and radial
Anatomically, fairly old dicotyledonous root is distinguished from the dicotyledonous stem by:
1. absence of secondary xylem
2. absence of secondary phloem
3. presence of cortex
4. position of protoxylem
