If there is more than one tunica layer in stem apex, which among the following is most likely to happen?

  • All the layers will develop into epidermal cells

  • Only the outer layer will develop into epidermal cells

  • All the layers will develop into cortex

  • Inner layer develops into cortex


B.

Only the outer layer will develop into epidermal cells

Even, if there is more than one tunica layer in stem apex, only the outer layer will develop into epidermal cells. The stem has three simple cell types, i.e. the parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma cells that are responsible for metabolic functions, repairing and healing wounds and storing starch.
