What to Focus On
- Plant tissues are organised into epidermal, ground and vascular tissue systems.
- Epidermis is usually single-layered and covered by cuticle in shoots.
- Cuticle is absent in roots.
- Epiblema is the outermost layer of the dicot root.
- Epiblema cells often form unicellular root hairs.
- Cortex is made of thin-walled parenchyma with spaces.
- Monocot roots have the same basic regions as dicot roots.
- Monocot xylem bundles are usually more than six.
- Monocot roots are polyarch.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
All plant organs have the same internal structure, so root, stem, and leaf tissues can be described in the same way.
Cuticle is present in roots because all outer plant surfaces need waterproof protection.
Stomata are only for water loss, so they are found equally in all plant organs and surfaces.
Memory Tips
Tissue systems in plants
Epidermis as the outermost layer
Cuticle and its absence in roots
Stomata, guard cells, and stomatal apparatus
