Solution

The correct option is D None of these

The vascular tissue system consists of complex tissues, the phloem and the xylem. The xylem and phloem together constitute vascular bundles. Xylem functions as a conducting tissue for water and minerals from roots to the stem and leaves while phloem transports food materials, usually from leaves to other parts of the plant.

Pteridophytes are the first terrestrial plants to possess vascular tissues – xylem and phloem.

Angiosperms and gymnosperms have well differentiated plant body with the presence of xylem and phloem (vascular bundles).
