- Hypodermis
- Endodermis
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The endodermis in roots contains transport proteins and the Casparian strip which regulate selective uptake of solutes into the vascular system. It serves as a checkpoint for solute passage.
