Endodermis cells contain Casparian strips, which help regulate the movement of water and solutes into the vascular bundle.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 6: Anatomy of Flowering Plants Anatomy of Dicot and Monocot Root
The endodermis has Casparian strips, which regulate the movement of water and minerals into the vascular tissue.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 6: Anatomy of Flowering Plants Anatomy of Dicot and Monocot Root
The endodermis has Casparian strips, which prevent passive water flow and regulate selective absorption.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 6: Anatomy of Flowering Plants Anatomy of Dicot and Monocot Root
Casparian strips are found in the endodermis, not in phloem, and they regulate the entry of water and solutes into vascular tissue.

The pericycle is the layer of cells located just inside the endodermis and is responsible for the initiation of lateral roots.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 6: Anatomy of Flowering Plants Anatomy of Dicot and Monocot Root
The endodermis contains Casparian strips that prevent the passive movement of water, regulating transport into the vascular tissue.

Answer: C) Suberin and lignin. For PSS- Sec-F-Transport, remember the key idea and you’ll land on this option; the distractors usually swap cause and effect or confuse similar terms. Avoid: A) Cellulose; B) Pectin; D) Hemicellulose. Name the process first, then pick the option that describes it — don’t reverse cause and effect.

Correct option is B, Block apoplastic transport. In PSS- Sec-F-Transport problems like this, the accurate statement is Block apoplastic transport; the others are common mix-ups. Not these: A) Block symplastic transport; C) Enhance diffusion; D) Create passage cells. Tissue transport questions usually turn on xylem vs phloem, living vs dead cells, or source vs sink.
