Explanation by: Admin

In dicot roots, the number of vascular bundles (xylem and phloem) is usually limited (around 2-6).

  • However, in Ficus, the root shows more than six vascular bundles, making it an exception among dicots.
  • This condition is known as polyarch xylem, which is more common in monocots but can be found in some dicots like Ficus.

Thus, option (C) is correct.
