Question

Annual rings can be useful for indicating age of the tree

• A. Dicot of equatorial region
• B. Monocot of equatorial region
• C. Dicot of temperate region
• D. Monocot of temperate area

Answer 1

The correct option is C Dicot of temperate region

In dicotyledonous trees, growing in temperate regions, due to maximum seasonal variations two types of secondary xylems are formed, spring or early wood and autumn wood or latewood. These two kinds of wood together form into a ring of wood called annual rings. These annual rings are useful in indicating the age of the trees.

So, the correct option is ‘Dicot of temperate regions’.
