Description

This illustration shows a cross-section of a pine tree root at a magnification of 100 times. Pine trees belong to the Pinus genus of the Pinaceae family and are known for their long, narrow needles and hard, woody cones that house their seeds. They are evergreen trees that can tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions and temperatures. Pine trees are an important source of timber, resin, essential oils, and edible seeds. This cross-section provides a detailed look at the structure of a pine tree root, which plays an important role in anchoring the tree in the soil and absorbing water and nutrients from the ground. Pine tree roots are composed of several layers, including the epidermis, cortex, endodermis, pericycle, and vascular tissue. The epidermis is the outermost layer of cells that protects the root from damage and helps to absorb water and nutrients. The cortex is the region of the root that stores starches and sugars, while the endodermis is a specialized layer of cells that controls the movement of water and nutrients into the vascular tissue.
