What to Focus On

  • Epiblema has root hairs for absorption.
  • Cortex stores food and water.
  • Endodermis has Casparian strips and passage cells.

  • Epidermis is protective with cuticle and hairs.
  • Hypodermis is collenchymatous for strength.
  • Endodermis stores starch (starch sheath).

  • Epidermis has root hairs for absorption.
  • Cortex has large intercellular spaces.
  • Endodermis regulates water flow.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Xylem in roots is endarch like in stems.

Monocot stems have vascular bundles arranged in a ring like dicot stems.

Casparian strips are found in all layers of the cortex.

Memory Tips

Layers of Dicot Root: Epiblema, Cortex, Endodermis, Pericycle, Vascular Bundle, Pith

Casparian strips in endodermis regulate water entry into xylem
