	List – I		List – II
A	Root Cap	I	Protects the tender apex of the root as it makes its way through the soil.
B	Region of Meristematic Activity	II	Characterized by cells that are very small, thin- walled, with dense protoplasm, and divide repeatedly.
C	Region of Elongation	III	Cells undergo rapid elongation and enlargement, responsible for the growth of the root.
D	Region of Maturation	IV	Cells differentiate and mature, and some epidermal cells form root hairs for absorption of water and minerals.
