IV.Radial vascular bundles are mainly found in the leaves.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
I and II are true, but III and IV are wrong
Option D (I and II are true, but III and IV are wrong) is correct because plasmodesmata are cytoplasmic strands connecting cells, xylem and phloem form vascular bundles, metaxylem is formed after protoxylem, and radial vascular bundles are in roots, not leaves.

Which type of vascular bundles are found in monocot stem?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Collateral, closed and endarch
Option D (Collateral, closed and endarch) is correct because monocot stems have vascular bundles that are collateral, closed (no cambium), and endarch (protoxylem towards the pith).

Which of the following statements is true?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Sclerenchyma cells are usually dead and without protoplasts
Option B (Sclerenchyma cells are usually dead and without protoplasts) is correct because this is a defining characteristic of sclerenchyma tissue.

In dicotyledonous roots, the initiation of lateral roots takes place in
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Pericycle cells
Option D (Pericycle cells) is correct because lateral roots originate from the pericycle, which is a layer of cells inside the endodermis.

Xylem fibres are made up of
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Sclerenchyma cells with thick wall
Option B (Sclerenchyma cells with thick wall) is correct because xylem fibers are sclerenchyma cells, which are characterized by their thick, lignified cell walls that provide structural support.

Which of the following tissues consist of living cells?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Companion cells
Option C (Companion cells) is correct because companion cells are living cells with cytoplasm and a nucleus, unlike vessels, tracheids, and sclerenchyma which are dead at maturity.

Select the correct option
II. Xylem parenchyma cells stores food and help in lateral conduction of sap
Select the correct option
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
I and II are correct
Option C (I and II are correct) is correct because sieve tubes conduct organic food longitudinally, and xylem parenchyma cells store food and aid in lateral water conduction.
