This stained light micrograph shows a cross section through a plant organ frorn Hakea purpurea, a shrub native to some arid regionsof Australia. (a) Review Figures 35.14,35.17, and 35.18 to identify whether this is a root, stem, or leaf. Explain your reasoning. (b) How might this organ bean adaptation fordry conditions?
