What are the two main tissues that make up the vascular system?
Options
- AXylem and phloem
- BCambium and xylem
- CPhloem and cambium
- DXylem and conjoint
Correct answer
A. Xylem and phloem
Step-by-step solution
The vascular system consists of complex tissues, the phloem and the xylem. The vascular system consists of complex tissues,the phloem and the xylem.The xylem andphloem together constitute vascular bundles. In dicotyledonous stems, cambium is present between phloem and xylem. Such vascular bundles because of the presence of cambium possess the ability to form secondary xylem and phloem tissues, and hence are called open vascular bundles. In the monocotyledons, the vascular bundles have no cambium present in them. He
