Solution

The correct option is D All the above
Trichomes or hairs grow out from the epidermis in many species. In root epidermis, epidermal hairs, termed root hairs are common and are specialized for absorption of water and mineral nutrients. Guard Cells are the only epidermal cells that can make sugar. As a result, water from other cells enter the guard cells by osmosis so they swell and become turgid.
So, the correct answer is 'All the above.'
