What Is the Monocot and Dicot Root Slide Used For?

Root cross-sections are the standard way to teach how monocots and dicots differ below ground. In a typical dicot root, students look for a compact central core of xylem arranged in a star-like pattern with phloem between its arms, while a typical monocot root shows many xylem and phloem groups in a ring around a central pith. Both show an outer epidermis, a wide cortex and an endodermis enclosing the vascular cylinder.

Ask students to draw both sections side by side and list the differences in a table — a quick way to prepare for practical examinations. View the whole outline at low power, then use a higher objective for the endodermis and xylem.
