The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the arrangement of xylem and phloem in an organ, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Arrangement**: The question states that xylem and phloem are arranged in an alternate manner on different radii. This indicates a specific type of vascular bundle arrangement. 2. **Identifying Vascular Bundle Types**: In plants, vascular bundles can be arranged in different ways: - **Collaterally**: Xylem and phloem are on the same radius. - **Radially**: Xylem and phloem are on different radii, alternating with each other. 3. **Recognizing Radial Arrangement**: The arrangement described in the question (xylem and phloem on different radii) is known as a radial arrangement. This is commonly found in roots. 4. **Comparing Organ Types**: - **Dicot Root**: Typically exhibits a radial arrangement of xylem and phloem. - **Dicot Stem**: Usually has a collateral arrangement. - **Monocot Stem**: Also has a collateral arrangement. - **Leaf**: Generally does not show radial arrangement. 5. **Conclusion**: Since the arrangement of xylem and phloem in an alternate manner on different radii is characteristic of a dicot root, we conclude that the organ studied is a **Dicot Root**. ### Final Answer: The organ will be a **Dicot Root**. ---
