Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three tissue systems of a mature plant root (the epidermis, cortex, and vascular tissue) complete their development in the differentiation zone of the root. This is the region where cells have specialized and assumed their specific roles within these three tissues. The elongation zone is where cells in the root actively divide and grow in length, and the cell division zone is where new cells are produced by mitosis. Vascularization refers to the formation of the plant's transport system, which includes the xylem and phloem, and can occur throughout the root's growing regions. However, it is not specific to the development of the root's tissue systems.
