Question
Chapter 36, Problem 10TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: A band of corky, waterproof tissue which is found on the transverse and radial walls of the endodermis of roots is known as Casparian strips. It is mainly involved in regulating the flow of water between the vascular cylinder and the outer tissues.
