When a meristematic tissue "cambium" is present inside a vascular bundle, the bundle is said to be
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Open
- The vascular bundles of dicot plants have a layer of meristematic tissue called cambium present inside them and these cells can divide, causing an increase in size. Hence they are called Open bundles.
- Monocot vascular bundles do not possess cambium and hence no growth occurs. Hence they are called Closed bundles.
- In collateral vascular bundles xylem remains towards the inner side and phloem towards the outer side.
- In Conjoint vascular bundles , xylem and phloem tissues are present on the same radius.
- Thus, option B is correct.
