Arrange the following in the order of their location from the periphery to center in the dicotyledons body I. Endodermis II. Metaxylem III. Trichoblasts IV. Phloem
Options
- AIV, I, II, III
- BIV, II, III,I
- CI, II, III, IV
- DIII, I, IV, II
Correct answer
D. III, I, IV, II
Step-by-step solution
The correct sequence of these cells is trichoblast-endodermis-phloem-metaxylem. A trichoblast is a cell on the exterior surface of a plant's root that is responsible for forming root hairs. The endodermis is the rod-shaped cells having the deposition of water-impermeable, waxy material suberin in the form of Casparian strips. Phloem and xylem are the vascular bundles present at the center.
