Diagram and label a cross section of a primary eudicot root. Identify the function of three of the labeled tissues.
Primary Eudicot Root
The initial root system developed from the embryo of a eudicot plant, characterized by a main taproot with smaller lateral branches.
Cross Section
A cut or view of an object or area that is made perpendicular to the axis to reveal its internal structure.

Final Answer :
The diagram should resemble an amalgamation of Fig. 36-3. The functions of tissues to choose from are as follows:
epidermis: absorption of water and minerals
cortex: the bulk of the cortex is involved in storage
endodermis: regulates the flow of water and minerals into xylem
pericycle: site of lateral root formation
xylem: transport of water and minerals
phloem: transport of dissolved sugars
