• Outer covering.
• In non-woody plants, it is a single layer of
tightly packed cells, or epidermis that
covers and protects all young parts of
plant.
• Epidermis has other specialized
characteristics consistent with function of
organ it covers.
○ Example:

• Most parenchyma cells retain
ability to divide and differentiate into other
cell types under special conditions, such as

lengthening.
• Many are dead at maturity, but they
produce rigid secondary cells walls before
protoplast dies.

Long, thin cells with tapered ends.
Water moves from cell to cell mainly
through pits.
Because their secondary walls are
hardened with lignin, tracheids function
in support as well as transport.

• Vascular bundles
– Not arranged in a circle/ring but are
scattered throughout ground tissues.
– Does not possess lateral meristems
(cambium) that give rise to secondary
growth.
– Monocot does not produce wood.

• Epidermis
– No cuticle.
– Have root hairs.
• Cortex
– Contains thin-walled parenchyma
cells.
• Endodermis
– One layer of cells. Each cell has a
special bandlike region, called a
Casparian strip.
• Pericycle
– One layer of cells.
– Surrounds vascular bundle.
• Vascular cylinder
– Xylem arranged like a star in
transverse section with several “spokes”.

• Epidermis
– On upper and lower surface.
– Outer surface covered with cuticle.
– Lower epidermis perforated by
stomata.
• Palisade mesophyll.
– Very little air spaces between
palisade cells.
– Cells contain chloroplast – performs
most of the photosynthesis.
• Spongy mesophyll
– Loosely arranged – allows CO2 to
diffuse easily.
– Cells contain fewer chloroplasts.
• Vascular bundles
– Xylem and phloem surrounded by
bundle sheath.

• Epidermis
– On upper and lower surface.
– Outer surface covered with cuticle.
– Lower epidermis perforated by
stomata.
• Although most monocots have both
palisade and spongy mesophylls, some
monocots lack distinct regions of palisade
and spongy mesophylls.
• Vascular bundles
– Leaves of most monocots have
parallel venation.
