Question

Which of the following is the only conducting tissue in non-flowering plants?

Open in App
Solution

Tracheids are dead cells with lignified walls but they do not have open ends so they do not form vessels.
Tracheids have bordered pits in their walls, so water can pass from one tracheid to another through these pits. Although all the plants have tracheids, they are the only water conducting tissue in non-flowering plants.
