Identify the zones of root which is correctly matched with its appropriate characteristics.
Regions of roots | Characteristics | ||
(1) | Root cap | (i) | Protects the tender apex of the root as it makes its way through the soil. |
(2) | Region of meristematic | (ii) | Responsible for the growth of the root in diameter. |
(3) | Region of elongation. | (iii) | The cells of this region are very small, thin-walled and with dense protoplasm which divide divide repeatedly. |
(4) | Region of maturation | (iv) | From this region some of the hypodermal cells form very fine and delicate, thread-like structures called trichomes. |
