Question

In the diagram of $\text{TS}$ of stele of dicot root, the different parts have been indicated by the alphabets. Choose the correct combination–

• A. $\text{A}-$Pericycle, $\text{B}-$Conjunctive tissue, $\text{C}-$Metaxylem, $\text{D}-$Protoxylem, $\text{E}-$Phloem, $\text{F}-$Pith
• B. $\text{A}-$Endodermis, $\text{B}-$Conjunctive tissue, $\text{C}-$Protoxylem, $\text{D}-$Metaxylem, $\text{E}-$Phloem, $\text{F}-$Pith
• C. $\text{A}-$Endodermis, $\text{B}-$Conjunctive tissue, $\text{C}-$ Metaxylem, $\text{D}-$Protoxylem, $\text{E}-$Phloem, $\text{E}-$Pith
• D. $\text{A}-$Endodermis, $\text{B}-$Pith, $\text{C}-$Protoxylem, $\text{D}-$Metaxylem, $\text{E}-$Phloem, $\text{F}-$Conjunctive tissue

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\text{A}-$Endodermis, $\text{B}-$Conjunctive tissue, $\text{C}-$Protoxylem, $\text{D}-$Metaxylem, $\text{E}-$Phloem, $\text{F}-$Pith

In the diagram of $\text{T.S.}$ of stele of dicot root, labelling from A to F is as follows:
$\text{A}.$ Endodermis - shows barrel shaped cells without intercellular spaces.
$\text{B}.$ Conjunctive tissue - shows separation of xylem and phloem.
$\text{C}.$ Protoxylem - away from center
$\text{D}.$ Metaxylem - towards the center
$\text{E}.$ Phloem - Dicot root shows radial vascular bundle, that is, xylem and phloem are situated at different radii.
$\text{F}.$ Pith - Dicot root shows small pith at the center
So, the correct answer is option 'b'.
