What is this?
The internal root structure is like looking inside a plant's root to see all its hidden parts. These parts work together to help the plant drink water and eat food from the soil, keeping it strong and healthy.
Key Parts to Explore
Epidermis
This is the very outer skin of the root, which helps protect it and absorb water.
Cortex
This thick layer stores important food and water for the plant to use later.
Vascular Cylinder
This central part is like the root's highway, containing tubes that transport water and food.
Xylem
These special tubes carry water and minerals from the soil all the way up to the leaves.
