| (b) Ground Tissue | (ii) Sieve tubes |
| (c) Vascular Tissue | (iii) Trichomes |
| (d) Companion Cells | (iv) Sclerenchyma |
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
š§ Explanation -
Correct Matching
(a)ā(iii), (b)ā(i), (c)ā(ii), (d)ā(iv)
- Epidermis ā Trichomes: Trichomes are epidermal outgrowths.
- Ground tissue ā Parenchyma: Parenchyma forms a major part of ground tissue.
- Vascular tissue ā Sieve tubes: Sieve tubes are conducting elements of phloem.
- Sclerenchyma ā Dead, thick-walled cells: Sclerenchymatous cells provide mechanical strength and are generally dead at maturity.
ā” Quick Revision
Epidermis ā Trichomes Ground tissue ā Parenchyma Phloem ā Sieve tubes + Companion cells Sclerenchyma ā Dead + lignified + thick-walled
š NEET Tip: Companion cells are living cells of phloem, so never match them with sclerenchyma.
