Summary Introduction
To diagram: The internal structure of a dicot root after primary growth, labeling, and describing the function of epidermis, cortex, endodermis, pericycle, xylem, and phloem.
Introduction:
The dicotyledons and monocotyledons differ from each other in many ways. There are two cotyledons in

Sketch observations of monocot stem cross section and the dicot stem cross section. Label the epidermis, phloem, xylem, cortex, and pith or ground tissue
Describe the short-distance transport of water into the xylem. Use the terms root hairs, endodermis, and Casparian strip.
Show the sequence of secondary growth by drawing the row of cells from the boxed area below and labeling the vascular cambium cell (V), 5 xylem cells from oldest (X1) to youngest (X5), and 3 phloem cells (P1 to P3). Show what happens after growth continues by drawing and labeling a row with twice as many xylem and phloem cells. How does the vascular cambium’s location change?

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_forward
