Question

Diffuse porous woods are characteristic of plants growing in

• A. Tropics
• B. Alpine region
• C. Temperature climate
• D. Cold winter regions

Answer 1

The correct option is A Tropics

Diffuse porous woods have even distribution of the xylem vessels. These are formed equally around the cambium as the cambium does not show much seasonal variation in the activity. Plants growing in tropics do not face high seasonal variations and have diffuse porous wood.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Tropics'.
