Detailed explanation-1: -Organization of the vascular tissue. Vascular tissue is organized into discrete strands called vascular bundles, each containing xylem and phloem. In stems, the vascular tissue is organized into many discrete vascular bundles. In the roots, the vascular tissue is organized within a single central vascular cylinder.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vascular tissue is a complex conducting tissue, formed of more than one cell type, found in vascular plants. The primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem. These two tissues transport fluid and nutrients internally.

Detailed explanation-3: -Angiosperms are vascular plants. They have stems, roots, and leaves. Unlike gymnosperms such as conifers and cycads, angiosperm’s seeds are found in a flower. Angiosperm eggs are fertilized and develop into a seed in an ovary that is usually in a flower.

Detailed explanation-4: -The xylem of gymnosperms lacks vessels whereas vessels are present in xylem of angiosperms. The phloem of gymnosperms lacks companion cells whereas companion cells are present in angiosperms.
