In a longitudinal section of a root, starting from the tip upward, the four zones occur in the following order :-

  1. Cell division, cell enlargement, cell maturation, root cap
  2. Root cap, cell division, cell enlargement, cell maturation
  3. Root cap, cell division, cell maturation, cell enlargement
  4. Cell division, cell maturation, cell enlargement, root cap

Answer

(2) Root cap, cell division, cell enlargement, cell maturation

Solution

As per NCERT, the apex of the root is covered by the root cap.

⇒ A few millimetres above it lies the region of meristematic activity (cell division).

⇒ Next is the region of elongation (cell enlargement).

⇒ Above it is the region of maturation, where cells differentiate and root hairs arise.

∴ Order: root cap → cell division → cell enlargement → cell maturation.
