Open in App
Solution

Vascular bundles:

  1. Vascular bundle is a strand of primary tissues which is usually found in the stem of plants and it consists of xylem phloem and cambium.
  2. In the dicot stem, these vascular bundles are well arranged in a circular manner and on the other hand in the monocot stem these vascular bundles are scattered throughout the cross-section of the stem.

Monocot plants:

  1. Monocots or monocotyledons are basically grasses and grass-like flowering plants, the seeds of these plants typically contain only one embryonic leaf or cotyledon that’s why they are referred to as monocotyledons.
  2. For example maize, rice, banana, sugarcane and wheat etc.
  3. Monocot plants contain scattered vascular bundles.
