Solution
The correct option is C Both a and b
The conducting system of the plants is made up of vascular bundle called xylem and phloem. These help plants transport water, mineral salts and sugar synthesised during photosynthesis to all parts of the plant.
A cut stem exposes these tissues and the contents ooze out from it. Hence, the analysis from the lab will reveal the presence of water, mineral salts along with sugar.
