Leaf epidermis and stem epidermis are both covered by a waxy cuticle, but root epidermis is not. How does the lack of a cuticle

reflect the function of the root?

Roots are built to absorb more and are placed right in their environment that they will be absorbing nutrients. Unlike leaves and stems, roots are not exposed to the daily elements in the outdoors and therefore don’t need the protection and filter that the waxy cuticle provides.

I believe this is the difference..
I hope this helps! :)

What type of immunity provides lifetime immunity for the body against a specific pathogen?
Tems11 [23]


The type of immunity that provides lifetime immunity for the body against a specific pathogen is called  acquired immunity.  It is also referred to as adaptive or specific immunity.

Acquired  immunity is not present at  birth. it is learned. As a person's immune system encounters foreign substances (antigens) the components of acquired immunity learn the best way to attack each antigen and begin to develop a memory for that antigen. Acquired immunity is also called specific immunity because it tailors its attack to a specific antigen previously encountered. Its uniqueness lies in its ability to learn, adapt and remember.

Acquired immunity takes time to develop after first exposure to a new antigen. However afterward, the antigen is remembered, and subsequent responses to that antigen are quicker and more effective than those that occurred after first exposure. Memory of a particular antigen is kept by the B and T lymphocytes.

The composition of the different ground tissues vary based on the amount of fibers and ground tissue present in it. The connective tissue which is high in collagen fibers will be the strongest and toughest.

Hence, the answer is 'connective tissue high in collagen fibers'.
