Vascular bundles in a dicot stem are described as:
AArranged in a ring, open (with cambium)
BScattered throughout, closed (no cambium)
CRadial with separate xylem-phloem strands
DSingle central bundle with no lateral roots
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Arranged in a ring, open (with cambium)
**DICOT stem:** vascular bundles arranged in a RING
bundles are CONJOINT (xylem + phloem together), COLLATERAL (xylem inside, phloem outside), OPEN (cambium present, allows secondary growth).
Monocots have scattered closed bundles.
