Plant group in which phloem is composed of sieve tube elements, companion cells, phloem parenchyma & Phloem fibres

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Phloem Composition**: - Phloem is a type of vascular tissue in plants responsible for the transport of nutrients, particularly sugars produced through photosynthesis. It is composed of several key components: sieve tube elements, companion cells, phloem parenchyma, and phloem fibers. 2. **Identifying Plant Groups**: - Different plant groups exhibit variations in their phloem composition. For example: - **Gymnosperms**: These plants lack companion cells in their phloem. - **Monocots**: In these plants, phloem parenchyma is absent. 3. **Determining the Group with All Components**: - The question specifies that we need to identify the plant group that contains all four components of phloem: sieve tube elements, companion cells, phloem parenchyma, and phloem fibers. - Since gymnosperms and monocots do not have all these components, we can conclude that the group containing all four is **dicots**. 4. **Final Answer**: - The plant group in which phloem is composed of sieve tube elements, companion cells, phloem parenchyma, and phloem fibers is **dicots** (a subgroup of angiosperms).
