Select the correct pair.
1. | Cells of medullary rays that form part of a cambial ring - Interfascicular cambium |
2. | Loose parenchyma cells rupture the epidermis and form a lens-shaped opening in the bark - Spongy parenchyma |
3. | Large colorless empty cells in the epidermis of grass leaves - Subsidiary cells |
4. | In dicot leaves, vascular bundles are surrounded by large thick-walled cells - Conjunctive tissue |
The periderm includes:
1. Secondary phloem
2. Cork
3. Cambium
4. All of these
Some vascular bundles are described as open because these:
1. | are not surrounded by pericycle |
2. | are surrounded by pericycle but no endodermis |
3. | are capable of producing secondary xylem and phloem |
4. | possess conjunctive tissue between xylem and phloem |
Given below is the diagram of a stomatal apparatus. In which of the following, all the four parts labelled as A, B, C and D are correctly identified:
A | B | C | D | |
1. | Guard cell | Stomatal aperture | Subsidiary Cell | Epidermal Cell |
2. | Epidermal Cell | Guard Cell | Stomatal aperture | Subsidiary cell |
3. | Epidermal Cell | Subsidiary Cell | Stomatal aperture | Guard Cell |
4. | Subsidiary Cell | Epidermal Cell | Guard Cell | Stomatal aperture |
Compared to a dicot root, a monocot root has:
1. Many xylem bundles
2. Inconspicuous annual rings
3. Relatively thicker periderm
4. More abundant secondary xylem
