| 1. | Dumb-bell shaped | 2. | Kidney shaped |
| 3. | Rectangular | 4. | Barrel-shaped |
Secondary xylem and phloem in dicot stem are produced by?
| 1. | Apical meristems | 2. | Vascular cambium |
| 3. | Phellogen | 4. | Axillary meristems |
| 1. | Epidermis | 2. | Pericycle |
| 3. | Cortex | 4. | Endodermis |
| 1. | Grasses | 2. | Deciduous angiosperms |
| 3. | Conifers | 4. | Cycads |
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 |
Tracheids differ from the tracheary elements in:
| 1. | Having casparian strips | 2. | Being imperforate |
| 3. | Lacking nucleus | 4. | Being lignified |
Gymnosperms are also called softwood spermatophytes because they lack:
1. Cambium
2. Phloem fibres
3. Thick-walled tracheids
4. Xylem fibres
| 1. | all tissues except epidermis and vascular bundles |
| 2. | epidermis and cortex |
| 3. | all tissues internal to endodermis |
| 4. | all tissues external to endodermis |
The annular and spirally thickened conducting elements generally develop in the protoxylem when the root or stem is:
1. maturing
2. elongating
3. widening
4. differentiating
