Collenchyma in plants:
I: occurs in layers below the epidermis in most of the dicotyledonous plants.
II: consists of cells that are much thickened at the corners due to deposition of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin.
III: never contains chloroplasts.
IV: provides mechanical support to the growing parts of the plant such as the young stem and petiole of a leaf.
1. Only I, II, and III are correct
2. Only I, II, and IV are correct
3. Only II, III, and IV are correct
4. Only I, III, and IV are correct

Primary xylem is of two types – protoxylem and metaxylem.
Statement I: In roots, the protoxylem lies towards the center (pith) and the metaxylem lies towards the periphery of the organ. This type of primary xylem is called endarch.
Statement II: In stems, the protoxylem lies towards the periphery and the metaxylem lies towards the center. Such an arrangement of the primary xylem is called an exarch.

Statement I: Phloem fibers (bast fibers) are made up of sclerenchymatous cells and are absent in the primary phloem but are found in the secondary phloem.
Statement II: The phloem parenchyma stores food material and other substances like resins, latex, and mucilage and is absent in most of the monocotyledons.
