The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each statement regarding secondary growth in roots and determine whether they are true (T) or false (F). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Evaluate Statement I: "Vascular cambium is partially secondary in origin."** - The vascular cambium in roots is primarily formed during secondary growth. It is not partially secondary; it is completely secondary in origin. Therefore, this statement is **False (F)**. 2. **Evaluate Statement II: "Vascular cambium is formed as continuous and complete but wavy ring."** - The vascular cambium does indeed form a continuous and complete ring in roots, although it may appear wavy due to the nature of growth. Hence, this statement is **True (T)**. 3. **Evaluate Statement III: "Cork cambium arises from cortical cells."** - Cork cambium does not arise from cortical cells; rather, it arises from the pericycle, which is located just inside the endodermis. Therefore, this statement is **False (F)**. ### Summary of Statements: - I: False (F) - II: True (T) - III: False (F) ### Correct Option: Based on the evaluations, the correct option that reflects these truths and falsehoods would be the one that corresponds to the findings: I (F), II (T), III (F). ---
