Question

Monocot vascular bundles do not have a vascular cambium between the xylem and phloem. This means that monocots ______. A. are much less efficient at conducting water and sugars B. have very thin stems C. do not produce wood in annual rings
D. cannot produce lateral shoots

Answer 1

There is no vascular cambium between the xylem and phloem in monocot vascular bundles. This means that no wood is produced in the annual ring.

What are annual rings?

An annual ring is a band of wood that can be seen in a cross-section of the stem or root of a temperate plant. It represents the annual growth of a plant. It represents a plant's growth over a year. Annual rings form as a result of vascular cambium activity during intrastellar secondary growth.

The study of tree growth rings can be very useful for determining the age of a specimen as well as understanding past hydrological phenomena as well as understanding geomorphological phenomena such as movements or landslides. The study of these rings can also be used to study and reconstruct the past and present climate of a specific area.
