What are the distinctive features of collenchyma cells?
1. They are elongated cells with thickened lignified cell walls.
2. They are dead cells that provide structural support.
3. They are elongated cells with unevenly thickened non-lignified cell walls.
4. They contain chloroplasts and primarily function in storage.

In dicot stems, why are collenchyma tissues generally found beneath the epidermis?
1. To provide flexibility and mechanical support to the stem. 
2. To facilitate gaseous exchange through the stem. 
3. To conduct water and nutrients from the roots. 
4. To store food and nutrients for the stem.

Identify the incorrect comparison between monocots and dicots in general:

Character Monocots Dicots
1. Leaves Parallel venation Reticulate venation
2. Roots Primary root of short duration, replaced by adventitial roots forming fibrous or fleshy root systems Develops from the radicle. Primary root often persists forming strong tap roots and secondary roots
3. Plant stem: Vascular bundles Ring of primary bundles with cambium, differentiated into cortex and stele Numerous scattered bundles in ground parenchyma, cambium mostly absent, no differentiation between cortical and stelar regions
4. Flowers Parts in threes (trimerous) or multiples of three Fours (tetramerous) or fives (pentamerous)
