Solution

The correct option is C epidermis
  • In a typical monocot root, Epiblema is single layered and consists of thin- walled cells. A few tubular root hairs arise as unicellular elongations of epiblema cells.
  • In a typical dicot root, Epidermis is uniseriate consisting of thin- walled, living parenchymatous cells. A few cells elongate to form root hair.
  • Therefore, from this analysis, It shows epiblema in monocot root is equivalent to epidermis of dicot root.
So, the correct option is C.
