Both Statements are correct
Only Statement 1 is correct
Both Statement is incorrect
Only Statement 2 is correct
Both monocot and dicots has three tissue systems – dermal, vascular, and ground tissue systems. Pericycle is part of the vascular cylinder that gives rise to both vascular and cork cambium.
