Solution
The correct option is B Dicot root
Epiblema is epidermal layer of dicot root. Epiblema is the outermost covering of the root formed by a single layer of compactly arranged, barrel-shaped parenchyma cells. The cells are characteristically thin-walled since, they are involved in absorption of water. A cuticle and stomata are absent. Some of the epiblema cells are produced into long unicellular projections called as root hairs. Hence, epiblema is also known as piliferous layer.
