The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Monocot Root Structure**: In monocot roots, the vascular bundles (which include xylem and phloem) are arranged in a specific pattern. 2. **Arrangement of Vascular Bundles**: The vascular bundles in monocot roots are arranged radially. This means that the xylem and phloem are positioned alternately around the center of the root. 3. **Number of Vascular Bundles**: In a typical monocot root, there are usually eight vascular bundles. Each of these bundles consists of one xylem and one phloem. 4. **Terminology**: The term used to describe the condition of having multiple vascular bundles is "polyarc." Since there are more than four vascular bundles in this case, it is specifically referred to as polyarc. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, in a monocot root, the xylem condition is described as polyarc due to the radial arrangement and the presence of multiple vascular bundles. **Final Answer**: In a monocot root, the xylem condition is polyarc. ---
