Assertion : In angiosperms, the conduction of
water is more efficient because their xylem has
vessels.

Reason : Conduction of water by vessel elements
is an active process with energy supplied by
xylem parenchyma rich in mitochondria.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
If both Assertion and Reason are false
Option D is correct because the assertion is true (angiosperms have more efficient water conduction due to vessels), but the reason is false (water conduction by vessels is a passive process, not active).
168 Medium

Analyzing +4 | -1
Assertion : Open vascular bundles are found
in dicot stem & gymnosperm.

Reason : Cambium is absent in between xylem
& phloem.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
If Assertion is true but Reason is false
Option C is correct because open vascular bundles are indeed found in dicot stems and gymnosperms, but the reason provided is false; cambium is present in open vascular bundles.

I. The 1° and 2° phloem get gradually crushed due to the continued formation and accumulation of 2° xylem
II. 1° xylem remains more or less intact in or near the centre
III. Secondary growth results in an increase in the length of the axis
Select the correct statements
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
I and II
Option A (I and II) is correct because primary and secondary phloem are crushed, and primary xylem remains intact during secondary growth. Secondary growth increases girth, not length.

As compared to the dicot root, monocotyledon root have
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
More xylem bundles
Option A (More xylem bundles) is correct because monocot roots typically have a polyarch xylem arrangement, meaning they have more xylem bundles compared to the dicot root's typically diarch or triarch arrangement.

All of the given characteristics are related to parenchyma tissue except
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Cell wall is mainly made up of suberin
