Question
The root pericycle is the site where(A) secondary growth originates.(B) root hairs originate.(C) lateral roots originate.(D) the endodermis originates.
Step 1
The pericycle is a layer of cells in plants that encircles the vascular tissue in stems and roots. In roots, it is surrounded by the inner cortical layer, also known as the endodermis. The structure of the root can be sketched as follows: the outermost layer is Show more…
