Question

Given the diagram of L.S of a part of bark region of plant. Choose the answer with the correct combination of parts and alphabets.

• A. A = hydathode, B = epithem, C = phellem, D = phellogen, E = phelloderm
• B. A = lenticular opening, B = cortex, C = phellogen, D = phellem, E = phelloderm
• C. A = stoma, B = secondary cortex, C = phellem, D = phellogen, E = phelloderm
• D. A = lenticular opening, B = complementary cells C = phellem, D = phellogen, E = phelloderm

Answer 1

The correct option is D

A = lenticular opening, B = complementary cells C = phellem, D = phellogen, E = phelloderm

bark refers to all tissues exterior to the vascular cambium including the secondary phloem.
