The correct Answer is:
To solve the question about the differences between dicot and monocot roots, we will analyze each characteristic provided in the table and determine which statements are incorrect. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Activity of Pericycle**: - **Dicot Root**: The pericycle is involved in lateral root production. - **Monocot Root**: It is stated that the pericycle is involved in secondary growth and cambium. - **Analysis**: Monocots do not have secondary growth due to the absence of vascular cambium. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. 2. **Vascular Bundle**: - **Dicot Root**: Vascular bundles can be diarch to tetrarch (2 to 4 bundles). - **Monocot Root**: It states that monocots have polyarch bundles (more than 6). - **Analysis**: This statement is correct as monocots typically have many vascular bundles. 3. **Cambium**: - **Dicot Root**: The cambium is present and allows for lateral development and secondary growth. - **Monocot Root**: It is stated that cambium is absent. - **Analysis**: This statement is correct since monocots do not have cambium and therefore do not undergo secondary growth. 4. **Pith**: - **Dicot Root**: Pith is described as well developed. - **Monocot Root**: It states that pith is poorly developed. - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect because in dicots, the pith is usually poorly developed, while in monocots, it is well developed. ### Summary of Incorrect Statements: - The incorrect differences are: - **Activity of Pericycle** (Dicot: lateral root production, Monocot: secondary growth and cambium) - **Pith** (Dicot: well developed, Monocot: poorly developed) Thus, the wrong differences between dicot and monocot roots are found in the first and fourth characteristics. ### Final Answer: The wrong differences are: - Activity of Pericycle - Pith
