Which one of the following options correctly matches column-I to that of column-II?Column-I Column-II (i) Xylem (A) Evaporation of water (ii) Phloem (B) Transport of nutrients and water (iii) Root hair (C) Absorption of water (iv) Stomata (D) Transport of food materials
(i)-(B) (ii)-(D) (iii)-(C) (iv)-(A)
Xylem is the vascular tissue responsible for the upward transport of water and minerals absorbed from the soil, so (i) Xylem matches with (B) Transport of nutrients and water.
Phloem is the vascular tissue responsible for transporting the food materials made during photosynthesis to different parts of the plant, so (ii) Phloem matches with (D) Transport of food materials.
Root hairs are fine extensions of root cells that increase the surface area for taking in water and minerals from the soil, so (iii) Root hair matches with (C) Absorption of water.
Stomata are tiny pores present mainly on leaves through which water vapour escapes from the plant during transpiration, so (iv) Stomata matches with (A) Evaporation of water.
Hence, the correct matching is (i)-(B), (ii)-(D), (iii)-(C), (iv)-(A).
