In Gymnosperms the wood is of two types namely :
Answer: C
Gymnosperm wood is Manoxylic and Pycnoxylic.
Manoxylic wood is soft and loose, with wide parenchymatous rays and much parenchyma, as in cycads. Pycnoxylic wood is dense and compact, with narrow rays and little parenchyma, as in conifers such as Pinus.
Homoxylic describes wood made of tracheids without vessels, a feature shared by almost all gymnosperms, so it does not divide them into two types. Polyxylic describes a stem with several rings of vascular tissue, as in Cycas, which is a feature of the stele rather than a type of wood.
