Question

Which is the trait that enabled the plants for the first time to colonise themselves on dry land?

• A. Lignified cell wall
• B. Vascular tissue
• C. Cuticle
• D. Stomata

Answer 1

The correct option is C Cuticle

The cuticle is a waxy coating over the surface of leaves and plants. It forms a waterproof coating over the surface of leaves and plants. It prevents water loss from plants and also prevents the plants from getting desiccated. It also prevents the intake of gases into the plants.

So, option C "Cuticle" is the correct answer.
