Sclerenchyma cells of the exodermis and xylem cells stain red and phloem cells stain blue. With a neat. With a neat cellular.
Staining reveals different cell types in this light micrograph of a wheat triticum root cross section. Set of cells on the outer layer that carry the root hairs. Root in cross section cross section of a typical root showing the primary xylem and the primary phloem arranged in a central cylinder.
Cuticle is present in some aerial roots. Root hairs are epidermal cells that increase the surface area of the root for the absorption of water. E phloem f endodermis function.
Axis of the plant which grows in the opposite direction from the stem maintain the plant in place and absorbs nutrients. Other cell types stain black. Ranunculus buttercup a dicot root cross section 40x.
The stele or vascular tissue is the area inside endodermis indicated by a green ring. Such cortex is called lacunate cortex.
