Cortex is the region found between
| 1. | Epidermis and stele |
| 2. | Pericycle and endodermis |
| 3. | Endodermis and pith |
| 4. | Endodermis and vascular bundle |
The balloon-shaped structures called tyloses
| 1. | Original in the lumen of vessels |
| 2. | characterise the sapwood |
| 3. | are exetentions of xylem parenchyma cells into vessels |
| 4. | are linked to the ascent of sap through xylem vessels |
Specialised epidermal cells surrounding the guard cells are called ?
| 1. | subsidiary cells | 2. | bulliform cells |
| 3. | lenticels | 4. | complementary cells |
Vascular bundles in monocotyledons are considered closed because
| 1. | a bundle sheath surrounds each bundle |
| 2. | cambium is absent |
| 3. | there are no vessels with performations |
| 4. | xylem is surrounded all around by phloem |
A major characteristic of the monocot root is the presence of
| 1. | open vascular bundles |
| 2. | scattered vascular bundles |
| 3. | vasculature without cambium |
| 4. | cambium sandwiched between phloem and xylem along the radius |
