Question

Explain different region of root

Answer 1

Answer:

Behind the root cap are three regions involved in primary root growth, including areas for cell division, growth and maturation. The meristematic region is the location of cell division, which means this is where new cells are made. ... These lateral roots stay connected to the xylem and phloem.

Answer 2

★ $\large{\underline{\rm{\red{Regions\:of\:the\:Root:-}}}}$

→ Root cap:- It is the covering at the apex of root. It protects the tender apex of the root.

→ Region of meristematic activity:- Seen above the root cap. Here, the cells are very small, thin walled and with dense protoplasm. They divide repeatedly.

→ Region of elongation:- The region just above the meristematic region. Here, the cells undergo rapid elongation and enlargement.

→ Region of maturation:- The region proximal to elongation zone. Here, the cells differentiate and mature.

→ Root hairs:- These are very fine, delicate, thread like structures formed from epidermal cells in region behind region of elongation. They absorb water and minerals from the soil.
