Question

Vascular bundles are scattered in the ground tissue in ________.

• A. dicot root
• B. monocot stem
• C. monocot root
• D. both b and c

Answer 1

The correct option is B monocot stem


Vascular bundles are scattered in the ground tissue in the monocot stem. The centrally located vascular bundles are larger in size when compared to the peripherally located vascular bundles.

In dicot root and monocot root, the xylem and phloem are arranged in an alternate manner along different radii. This type of arrangement of vascular bundles is called radial.
