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?

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
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

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) |
