The dicot stem is characterised by the presence of conjoint, collateral and open vascular bundles, with a strip of cambium between the xylem and phloem. The vascular bundles are arranged in the form of a ring, around the centrally-located pith. The ground tissue is differentiated into the collenchyma, parenchyma, endodermis, pericycle and pith. Medullary rays are present between the vascular bundles.
Solution Image
The monocot stem is characterised by conjoint, collateral and closed vascular bundles, scattered in the ground tissue containing the parenchyma. Each vascular bundle is surrounded by sclerenchymatous bundle-sheath cells. Phloem parenchyma is absent and water-containing cavities are present.

During cell growth processes, the temperature might increase due to the anabolism (synthesis of complex biomolecules). This energy must be released out of the system; otherwise, the cell cycle will be terminated by the temperature rise. Consider a continuous fermenter reactor to produce Penicillium chrysogenum. The enthalpy of reaction for the cells is -27.6 kJ/Lh. The volume of the well-insulated (adiabatic) fermenter reactor is 2.4 L. The inlet stream temperature is at ambient temperature, 25°C. The cells of Penicillium chrysogenum are not able to grow above 42°C. Penicillium chrysogenum Cell growth Continuous fermenter Figure: Summary of the process to produce Penicillium chrysogenum. Adapted from Barreiro, C. et al., 2019, J. Proteomics, 198, 119-131. Draw and label the flowchart for this process. Write the related energy balance and choose the reference temperature to calculate the exit temperature. Will the cells be able to survive at the temperature that you would determine? (Assume that the inlet and outlet streams have a heat capacity of 3.8 J/g°C and the mass flow rate of 1575 g/h are constants.)
