Answer:
A typical young root shows 4 regions :-
❤️Root Cap
❤️Region of meristematic activity
❤️Region of Elongation
❤️Region of maturity .
1) Root Cap :-
❤️The root is covered at the apex by a thimble like Structure called the root cap.
❤️It protects the tender apex of the root as it makes its way through the soil .
2) Region of Meristematic activity :-
❤️The cells of this region are very small , thin walled and with dense protoplasm .
❤️They divided repeatedly to produce daughter cells .
3) Region of Elongation :-
❤️The cells proximal to the Meristematic region undergo rapid Elongation .
❤️These responsible for the growth of the root in length .
4) Region of maturity :-
❤️The cells of the elongation zone gradually differentiate and mature .
❤️Hence the zone proximal to region of an elongation is called region of maturity .
❤️From this regions , some of the epidermal cells from very fine delicate thread like structure called root hairs .
❤️Root hairs absorb water and minerals salts from the soil .
