Detailed explanation-1: -Epidermis, Cortex, Root Hair, Xylem, Endodermis.
Detailed explanation-2: -The sequence in order from outer to the inner side in the transverse section of a plant root will be root hair, epidermis, cortex, endodermis, xylem.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hence, the correct sequence from outer to inner layers is soil water, root hair, cortical cells, endodermis, and xylem. Was this answer helpful?
Detailed explanation-4: -1-Water is passively transported into the roots and then into the xylem. 2-The forces of cohesion and adhesion cause the water molecules to form a column in the xylem. 3-Water moves from the xylem into the mesophyll cells, evaporates from their surfaces and leaves the plant by diffusion through the stomata.
Detailed explanation-5: -The water first enters the protoxylem and then into the metaxylem. From xylem, the water moves up and reaches the other plant parts.
