Summary Introduction
To determine: The way in which the arrangements of vascular tissue in cross section differ in primary eudicot stems and
Introduction: Vascular bundle is a part of the transport system in vascular plants. Xylem and phloem are the two tissues present in the vascular bundles. In addition to this, supporting and protective tissues are also present in the vascular tissue. The vascular tissues in the stems are called vascular bundles and the vascular tissue in the roots is called vascular cylinder. The vascular tissue structure varies in both monocot and eudicot plants.
