Answer 1

The correct option is D $a-4,b-5,c-1,d-2,e-3$

Answer is option D i.e. "a−4,b−5,c−1,d−2,e−3"
a) Passage cells frequently occur in the endodermis.
b) Stomata are cell in the epidermis of leaves and are also called accessory or subsidiary cells.
c) Sieve tubes are associated with companion cells and both are parts of plant phloem.
d) Lenticels are spongy openings in the periderm that helps in gaseous exchange.
e) Mesophyll of a leaf contains pallisade cells which functions in absorption of light for photosynthesis.
