Match List I with List II : List I List II A. Conjunctive tissue I. Specialised cells in the vicinity of guard cells B. Casparian strips II. Endodermal cells rich in starch C. Subsidiary cells III. Tissue between xylem and phloem D. Starch sheath IV. Endodermal cells with suberin deposition Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
C. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
Conjunctive tissue is the parenchymatous tissue present between the xylem and phloem in roots. Casparian strips are the water-impermeable, waxy suberin depositions present on the radial and tangential walls of endodermal cells. Subsidiary cells are the specialised epidermal cells present in the vicinity of guard cells. Starch sheath is the endodermis of a dicot stem, as its cells are rich in starch grains. Thus, the correct match is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II. Answer: A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
