Closed vascular bundles lack
1. Ground tissue
2. Conjunctive tissue
3. Cambium
4. Pith
Water containing cavities in vascular bundles are found in
1. Sunflower | 2. Maize |
3. Cycas | 4. Pinus |
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:
1. Xylem parenchyma | 2. Endodermis |
3. Pericycle | 4. Medullary rays |
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?
1. Secondary xylem | 2. Secondary phloem |
3. Protoxylem | 4. Cortical cells |
Tracheids differ from the tracheary elements in
1. Having casparian strips
2. Being imperforate
3. Lacking nucleus
4. Being lignified
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 |
