Answer 2

The tissue is required to be present in between stock in scion during grafting is b) phloem.

• In grafting stock and scion join to form an undifferentiated mass of cells which results in the formation of cambium.
• Scion is stemmed like the part which joins with stock. stock is similar to the root part.
• Xylem transports water and minerals while phloem transports food material to the plant parts such as stems, roots and leaves.
• Xylem transport is mainly through transpiration pull.
• Xylem elements include a vessel, tracheids, xylem fibres and xylem parenchyma. Tracheids transport water and minerals.
• Lignified walls of xylem fibres provide mechanical strength. Xylem parenchyma transport hormones.
• Phloem parenchyma affects the storage of food.
