Consider the given two statements: 
Assertion (A): The presence of a casparian strip is characteristic of the endodermis in plant roots. 
Reason (R): The casparian strip is made up of cellulose and pectin which helps in regulating the flow of substances into the vascular tissue.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
3. (A) is True but (R) is False. 
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.

How many of the following statements about plant tissues are correct?
I: Sclerenchyma cells are typically dead and have thickened lignified walls that help in providing structural support.
II: Xylem tissues are primarily involved in the storage of proteins and starch.
III: Phloem tissues are responsible for the transport of water and minerals from the roots to the leaves.
IV: Parenchyma cells are versatile cells that can store food, and are also involved in photosynthesis and repair.

The  primary function of stomata in plant leave is to:
1. Absorb water from the soil.
2. Exchange gases with the environment, primarily for photosynthesis and respiration.
3. Transport nutrients from the roots to other parts of the plant.
4. Protect against herbivores by secreting defensive compounds
