Answer 2

Assertion and reasoning  

Explanation:

Assertion (A): In woody plants, gaseous exchange occurs through lenticels

Reason(R): Lenticels are specialised cells found along with stomata on the stem of woody plants​

• Assertion is true and reason is false

• In plants, a gaseous exchange is required. Carbon dioxide, which is taken in the form of air, is required for photosynthesis. Stomata are present on leaves, stems, and other organs for this purpose. Pores found on the epidermis is stomata

• Lenticels are the lens-shaped pores that are found in the bark of woody plants. It is one of many raised pores in a woody plant's stem that allow gas exchange between the atmosphere and the internal tissues.
• It is made up of cells with intercellular spaces found in the periderm of secondary growth organs, such as the stems of woody plants and the roots of dicotyledonous flowering plants.
• Lenticels do not have any specialized cells but each stoma has specialized cells called guard cells to open and close stomata.
