The xylem and phloem in a monocot plant are bundled together in pairs.
The xylem and phloem in a dicot plant are bundled together in pairs.
The xylem and phloem in a dicot plant are separated into rings.
The arrangement of the vascular system depends on whether the plant is a monocot or dicot.

Respuesta :

In plant stems, monocots have scattered xylem and phloem, hence option a is correct.

What are the xylem and phloem?

The monocot stem is made up of the phloem, xylem, and epidermis (vascular bundles). In a monocot stem, the vascular bundles are dispersed throughout the stem's origin under the epidermis.

One of the fundamental characteristics that distinguish herbaceous dicots from monocots is the dispersed organization of the vascular bundles.

Therefore xylem and phloem bundled together in monocot is an incorrect statement, hence option a is correct.
