Question

which type of stele is found in the root of lycopodium​

Answer 1

Answer:

The stele is defined as a central vascular cylinder, with or without pith. Endodermis is the boundary between cortex and stele. Xylem and phloem are the components of vasculature. In Lycopodium, the stele is protostelic but the nature and arrangement of xylem and phloem differ in different species.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Protostelic is the type of stele is found in the root of lycopodium​.

About Stele:

• The central portion of the root or stem that houses the tissues generated from the procambium is known as the stele in vascular plants.
• Vascular tissue, ground tissue, and, if present, a pericycle, which, if present, defines the outermost edge of the stele, are some of these.
• The plant stele is made up of the stem's main circulatory system and any accompanying ground tissues (e.g., pith).
• Only primary tissues that have been differentiated from procambial strands generated from the apical meristem make up the stele.
• The core cylinder of vascular tissues, which includes xylem, phloem, pericycle, and occasionally medullary rays with pith, is referred to as a stele.

The function of the stele:

• The cerebral parenchyma performs metabolic tasks that are not well understood, while the stele is responsible for transporting water, nutrients, and photosynthates.
