Vedclass · Answer

(A) The Casparian strip is a band of cell wall material deposited in the radial and transverse walls of the endodermis,and it is chemically composed of suberin. $1$. Casparian strips are characteristic of the endodermis of the $root$,not the $stem$. Thus,option $A$ is incorrect. $2$. They are indeed suberized thickenings,making option $B$ correct. $3$. Due to the presence of suberin,they are impermeable to water,making option $C$ correct. $4$. In the symplastic pathway,water moves through the cytoplasm and plasmodesmata,bypassing the cell wall barriers; therefore,the Casparian strip does not obstruct this pathway,making option $D$ correct.
