Consider the given statements:
I. In dicot roots, the pericycle strengthens the roots and provides protection for the vascular bundles.
II. In dicot root, the vascular cambium is completely secondary in origin, and it originates from a portion of pericycle tissue.
III. The pericycle regulates the formation of lateral roots by rapidly dividing near the xylem elements of the root.
The correct statements are:

1. Only I and II 2. Only I and III
3. Only II and III 4. I, II and III

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)
