D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Caspairan strip is the layer of cells, which is impervious to water as it has a band of suberised matrix. The suberin material restricts the movement of water. Plasmodesmata are transcellular connections, which help in the exchange of the protoplasm, other materials and cellular signals. Endodermis is the tissue situated just below the epidermis. It is formed by isodiametric cells.
