Q. Identify the correct order (root) from base to root apex I. Mineral absorption zone II. Soil penetration zone III. Cell number increasement zone V. Cell elongation zone
A) II, I, IV, III
B) I, II, III, IV
C) IV, III, II, I
D) III, IV, I, II
Explanation
Below the root cap the area of new cell formation is called meristematic zone. Behind meristematic zone is the area of cell enlargement. Below this zone, the absorption of water and then mineral takes place. This water and mineral absorption comes under the zone of maturation
