All the following statements regarding the anatomy of a typical dicotyledonous root are correct except:
1. | Many cells of the epiblema protrude in the form of unicellular root hairs. |
2. | The innermost layer of the cortex is called as the endodermis. |
3. | Pericycle is made up of collenchymatous cells. |
4. | Parenchymatous conjunctive tissue lies between the xylem and phloem. |
All the following regarding parenchyma tissue in plants are correct except:
1. Cells are generally isodiametric
2. Cell walls are generally thick
3. Cell walls are made of cellulose
