A common structural feature of vessel elements and sieve tube elements is-

  1. Enucleate condition
  2. Presence of p-protein
  3. Thick secondary walls
  4. Pores on lateral wall

Answer

(1) Enucleate condition

Solution

As per NCERT, vessel members are lignified and lack protoplasm at maturity (dead cells), so they have no nucleus. Also as per NCERT, a mature sieve element possesses a peripheral cytoplasm and a large vacuole but lacks a nucleus.

Thus both are enucleate at maturity, which is the common feature.

The other features are not shared: P-protein occurs only in sieve tubes, and thick lignified secondary walls with lateral pits occur only in vessels (sieve tubes have sieve plates on their end walls).
