sieve elements
Companion cells are characteristic elements of phloem tissue associated with the sieve tubes(sieve elements) in the angiosperms. The siever tubes and companion cells are related ontogenically as they develop from the same mother cell. The companion cells and sieve tubes maintain close cytoplasmic connections through plasmodesmata.

To obtain virus - free healthy plants from a diseased one by tissue culture technique, which part/parts of the diseased plant will be taken?
Apical meristem only
Palisade parenchyma
Both apical and axillary meristems
Both apical and axillary meristems
A major characteristic of the monocot root is the presence of
Open vascular bundles
Scattered vascular bundles
Vasculature without cambium
Vasculature without cambium
Vascular bundles in monocotyledons are considered closed because
a bundle sheath surrounds each bundle
cambium is absent
there are no vessels with perforations
