Summary Introduction
To explain: Label the cross section of eudicot root and its vascular cylinder and identify the functions of all tissues.
Introduction: The root is one of the plant organs in the vascular plants. Generally, the root lies below the soil surface. The major role of roots includes storage of nutrients and food, absorption of inorganic nutrients, and water. The term eudicots result from the dicotyledons. In the

- Tissues in a carrot root, make a simple sketch and label the tissues. The outermost covering of the cylinder( the skin of the carrot root) is made up of dermal tissue, particularly the periderm. Beneath the periderm is a layer called the cortex which is made up of parenchyma, a type of ground tissue. Underneath the cortex is vascular cylinder which contains the ploem(the outer layer of the cylinder) and the xylem (the central core of the cylinder, the lightly colored part). Between the ploem and the xylem where the vascular cambium is located (a layer that is only one cell thick) a lateral meristematic tissue. plsssss help me sketch this and label it, thank you.arrow_forwardIt is the superficial tissue in a herbaceous stems. ______________________ The tissue of the stem cortex that primarily function for storage. __________________________________ Stem cortical layer present only in the underground stem. _____________________________________________________arrow_forwardState the functions of each of the following to the plant: 1)leaves 2)stem 3)rootarrow_forward
