Well developed pith is present in
1. Dicot stem, monocot root
2. Monocot stem, dicot root

| Assertion (A): | Gymnosperms have vessels in their xylem. | 
| Reason (R): | The presence of vessels in gymnosperms helps in the efficient transport of water and minerals. | 
| 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. | Both (A) and (R) are False. | 
 
| 1. | Monocot root | 2. | Dicot root | 
| 3. | Dicot stem | 4. | Monocot stem | 
Some vascular bundles are described as open because these
| 1. | are surrounded by pericycle but no endodermis | 
| 2. | are capable of producing secondary xylem and phloem | 
| 3. | possess conjunctive tissue between xylem and phloem | 
| 4. | are not surrounded by pericycle | 
| 1. | Cambium cells | 2. | Cells of pericycle | 
| 3. | Xylem parenchyma | 4. | Sieve tubes | 
| 1. | Secondary growth | 2. | Vessels in their xylem | 
| 3. | Albuminous cells | 4. | A dominant sporophyte | 
The incorrect statement regarding epidermal tissue system in angiosperms would be:
| 1. | It comprises of epidermal cells and stomata but not the appendages such as trichomes | 
| 2. | It is the outermost layer of the primary plant body forming a continuous layer | 
| 3. | It is usually single layered | 
| 4. | Cells are parenchymatous with a large vacuole | 
| I: | Sclerenchymatous pericycle | 
| II: | Casparian strips in endodermis are very common | 
| III: | Collechymatous hypodermis | 
| IV: | Conjoint open vascular bundles with exarch protoxylem | 
| 1. | 4 | 2. | 3 | 
| 3. | 2 | 4. | 1 | 
| 1. | Monocot stem | 2. | Dicot stem | 
| 3. | Monocot root | 4. | Dicot root | 
| I: | Stomata are structures present in the epidermis of leaves. | 
| II: | Stomata regulate the process of transpiration and gaseous exchange. | 
| III: | Each stoma is composed of two bean-shaped cells known as subsidiary cells which enclose stomatal pore. | 
| IV: | In grasses, the guard cells are dumb-bell shaped. | 
| V: | The inner walls of guard cells (towards the stomatal pore) are thin and the outer walls (away from the stomatal pore) are highly thickened. |
