Question: The given figure shows apical meristem of root apex with few part marked as 1, 2 and 3. Identify the correct labelling of 1, 2 and 3.
Options:
A) 1 - Vascular structure, 2 - Protoderm, 3 - Root cap
B) 1 - Cortex, 2 - Endodermis, 3 - Root cap
C) 1 - Cortex, 2 - Protoderm, 3 - Root cap
D) 1 - Tunica, 2 - Protoderm, 3 - Root cap

Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
In the given figure of root apical meristem, the part marked as 1, 2 and 3 is respectively root cap, cortex and prodder.
The apical meristem is a completely undifferentiated meristematic tissue found in the buds and growing tips of roots in plants.
Its main function is to begin growth of new cells in young seedlings at the tips of roots and shoots (forming buds, among other things).
