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

Companion cells are closely associated with
1. Sieve elements
2. Vessel elements
3. Trichomes
4. Guard cells

Closed vascular bundles lack
1. Ground tissue
2. Conjunctive tissue
3. Cambium
4. Pith

Water containing cavities in vascular bundles are found in

Gymnosperms are also called soft wood spermatophytes because they lack
1. Cambium
2. Phloem fibres
3. Thick-walled tracheids
4. Xylem fibres

The common bottle cork is a product of
1. Dermatogen
2. Phellogen
3. Xylem
4. Vascular Cambium

As compared to a dicot root, a monocot root has
1. More abundant secondary xylem
2. Many xylem bundles
3. Inconspicuous annual rings
4. Relatively thicker periderm

Age of a tree can be estimated by:
1. biomass
2. number of annual rings
3. diameter of its heartwood
4. its height and girth

Interfascicular cambium develops from the cells of:

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?
