Xylem tracheids Chesel like ends spherical oval or cylindrical, highly thickened
Xylem fibre Obliterated lumen dead cells with very narrow cavity (lumen). These
Xylem Store food are commonly found in the fruit wall of nuts, pulp

legumes and leaves of tea. Sclerenchyma provides

When xylem and phloem within a vascular bundle Amphivasal Dracaena
are arranged in an alternate manner on different vascular bundle
radii, the arrangement is called radial, such as in
roots. In conjoint type of vascular bundles, the
xylem and phloem are situated at the same radius
of vascular bundles. Such vascular bundles are 7 (d)
common in stems and leaves. The conjoint (i) Cork cambium is also called phellogen
vascular bundles usually have the phloem located (ii) Cork is also called phellem
only on the outer side of xylem (iii) Secondary cortex is also called phelloderm
