A-R type question (1x4)
DIRECTION: Questions 1 to 4 consist of two statements- Assertion (A) and Reason (R).

explanation of Assertion (A).
(c) Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
(d) Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.
1. Assertion (A): Meristematic tissues are composed of differentiated cells.
Reason (R): Meristematic tissues cause growth in plants.
2. Assertion (A): Connective tissues provide structural support to organ and tissues.
Reason (R): Connective tissues are mainly composed of cells that contract and relax.
3. Assertion (A): Epithelial tissue are tightly packed and form a protective barrier.
Reason (R): Epithelial tissues have a high rate of cell division to replace damaged cells.
4. Assertion (A): Vessel and sieve tube both are meant for transport purposes.
Reason (R): Vessels are lignified.
