The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "Cell walls show unevenly thickened hypodermis in," we need to analyze the options provided: maize, sunflower, zover, and bajra. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Hypodermis**: The hypodermis is a layer of cells located beneath the epidermis in plant stems. It can be composed of different types of tissues, including collenchyma and sclerenchyma. 2. **Identifying Tissue Types**: - **Collenchyma**: This tissue is characterized by unevenly thickened cell walls and provides support to the plant while allowing for flexibility. - **Sclerenchyma**: This tissue has uniformly thickened cell walls and provides rigidity and strength. 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Maize**: In maize, the hypodermis is primarily composed of sclerenchyma, which does not have unevenly thickened walls. Therefore, maize is not the correct answer. - **Sunflower**: Sunflower stems typically contain collenchyma in the hypodermis, which is known for its unevenly thickened cell walls. This makes sunflower a potential correct answer. - **Zover**: There is limited information available about the specific histological characteristics of "zover," but it is not commonly known for having collenchyma. - **Bajra**: Similar to maize, bajra (pearl millet) also has a hypodermis composed of sclerenchyma, which does not exhibit uneven thickening. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the only plant from the options that shows unevenly thickened hypodermis due to the presence of collenchyma is the sunflower. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **sunflower**. ---
