Which of the following tissues are not considered part of the ground tissue?

Step-by-step solution

All tissues except epidermis and vascular bundles constitute the ground tissue . It consists of simple tissues such as parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma. Parenchymatous cells are usually present in cortex, pericycle, pith and medullary rays, in the primary stems and roots. In leaves, the ground tissue consists of thin-walled chloroplast containing cells and is called mesophyll.
