Cross section through a root with a well-developed cortex and a small vascular cylinder in the center. The epidermis or rhizodermis is single layered and consist of thin \u2013 walled cells. The cortex possesses many air cavities (lacunae) forming an aerenchyma whose parenchyma cells are small and arranged in row around lacunae. In different places of this aerenchyma, we note the presence of sclereids in form of stars (see blue arrows) whose lignified walls offer support to the roots.<\/p>
