How would you recognize the epidermis of a root versus the epidermis of a leaf?
The lower epidermal layer of leaf has many holes (stomata) in it and guard cells surrounding these holes. In the roots the epidermis has many root hairs growing out of it or regions of dead root hairs where over time the roots have grown longer and the old root hairs are no longer needed to capture water. In the upper epidermis of a leaf you would see palisade cells just beneath the epidermal layer and a waxy cuticle just above.
What is the outside tissue of a root called?
the inner layer ---> novanet
Is epidermis present in root hairs?
is epidrmis present in root hairs
What layer are root hair found?

What is the name of the outer ring of cells in a parsley root?
