  1. No vascular bundles

  2. Well developed pith

  3. Radially arranged vascular bundles

  4. Open vascular bundles

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

In dicot root, well developed pith is absent. In monocot root, well developed pith is present. In dicot roots, open vascular bundles are present which are radially arranged. 

Therefore, the correct answer is option B.

  1. Ferns

  2. Dicots

  3. Monocots

  4. Moss

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:
On the basis of the number of cotyledons angiosperms are divided into monocots (having one cotyledon) and dicots (having 2 cotyledons). 
General characteristics of dicot.
  • They are two seeded plants.
  • The leaves of dicotyledons have veins in a network.
  • Dicotyledon seeds also contain an embryonic plant.
  • The flowers of dicotyledons have petals and other parts of the flower are arranged in four or five or six. It may contain flowers with four petals, flowers with five petals, flowers have six petals and the stamens also follow this pattern.
  • The seed is protected by a seed coat. For example, trees, sunflower, rose, etc.

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Dicot root and monocot root differ on the activity of pericycle, a number of vascular bundles and the presence of medulla. In both dicot root and monocot root, six vascular bundles are present, they distinguished by thickness of cell walls or outlines of vessels.
