The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each of the given statements and determine which plant part they describe. The statements are: 1. Multicellular epidermal hair 2. Collenchymatous hypodermis 3. Pith present 4. Vascular bundles present in a ring (i.e., eustele) Let's break down each statement step by step: ### Step 1: Analyze the first statement - **Multicellular epidermal hair**: This feature is characteristic of dicot plants. Dicot stems often have multicellular epidermal hairs that serve various functions, including protection and reducing water loss. **Hint**: Look for features that are specific to dicots versus monocots. ### Step 2: Analyze the second statement - **Collenchymatous hypodermis**: This is also a feature of dicot stems. Collenchyma provides support and flexibility to the plant, which is more common in dicots than in monocots. **Hint**: Remember that collenchyma is associated with young stems and is typically found in dicots. ### Step 3: Analyze the third statement - **Pith present**: Pith is a central part of the stem and is found in dicot stems. While pith can also be present in monocot roots, it is a defining feature of dicot stems. **Hint**: Consider the internal structure of stems when identifying the presence of pith. ### Step 4: Analyze the fourth statement - **Vascular bundles present in a ring (i.e., eustele)**: This arrangement of vascular bundles in a ring is typical of dicot stems. In contrast, monocot stems have vascular bundles that are scattered (atactostele). **Hint**: The arrangement of vascular bundles can help distinguish between monocots and dicots. ### Conclusion After analyzing all four statements, we can conclude that all the features described (multicellular epidermal hair, collenchymatous hypodermis, pith present, and vascular bundles in a ring) are characteristic of **dicot stems**. ### Final Answer The features describe the **dicot stem**.

To solve the question, we need to analyze each of the given statements and determine which plant part they describe. The statements are: 1. Multicellular epidermal hair 2. Collenchymatous hypodermis 3. Pith present 4. Vascular bundles present in a ring (i.e., eustele) Let's break down each statement step by step: ...
