The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the pericycle in a dicot stem, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Structure of Dicot Stem**: - In a dicot stem, the pericycle is a part of the vascular tissue system. It is located just inside the endodermis and surrounds the vascular bundles. 2. **Identify the Characteristics of Pericycle**: - The pericycle is primarily composed of sclerenchyma cells, which provide structural support. 3. **Determine the Layers of Pericycle**: - In dicot stems, the pericycle is not a single layer; it is typically multilayered. This means it consists of multiple layers of cells. 4. **Assess the Options Provided**: - (a) Single layered - Incorrect - (b) Multilayered - Correct - (c) Two layered - Incorrect - (d) Absent - Incorrect 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the characteristics and structure of the pericycle in dicot stems, the correct answer is (b) multilayered. ### Final Answer: (b) multilayered
