Transverse Section of Monocot Root Chart
Product Code : SCL-CP-12238
Transverse Section of Monocot Root Chart (SKU SCL-CP-12238) is a botany teaching chart that shows a monocot root cut across its width, with the epidermis, cortex, endodermis, pericycle, xylem, phloem and pith. It suits school biology, botany and plant histology lessons ahead of work on real root sections. Science Lab Supplies sends quotations for the chart from its Ambala base in India to schools, colleges, science-kit suppliers and distributors.
Specifications
The monocot root chart is summarised in the table that follows. In short, it is a single printed chart of a monocot root in transverse section, covering seven tissue regions and centred on the radial vascular arrangement; chart size, print material, lamination, mounting and label language are fixed on the quotation for each order.

Applications and Experiments for the Monocot Root T.S. Chart
The chart gives students a labelled map of a monocot root before they cut or view a section. With it, a class can name each tissue from the epidermis to the pith, follow the radial pattern of xylem and phloem, and relate the endodermis and pericycle to water uptake and transport in the root.
- Class 11 biology (Anatomy of Flowering Plants): internal structure of monocot and dicot roots.
- Botany practicals: identifying root tissues before viewing a section under the Junior School Microscope, with thin hand sections cut using the razor in the Student Dissecting Set.
- Slide preparation: mounting a stained root section on Laboratory Microscope Glass Slides (Pack 50) and matching it to the chart labels.
- Root absorption and transport lessons, and labelled diagrams for practical records.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each unit is one Transverse Section of Monocot Root Chart. A wall hanger, rods, a frame, a storage roll, a teacher guide or a worksheet can be requested on the quotation, where the chart size, print finish and label language are also confirmed before the chart is packed.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Order one chart for a single botany room or a set of copies for several classrooms; the quotation gives packing, delivery time and price for that quantity. Matching root, stem and leaf charts can sit on the same quote, which helps when planning school biology lab equipment in India for a whole plant anatomy unit.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code and is able to ship to buyers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines, Nepal and Bangladesh. Questions about the artwork go through the contact page, a list of charts can be built in the enquiry cart, and institutional bids are handled via the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does T.S. mean on this chart?
T.S. stands for transverse section, the view of a root cut straight across its width. The chart uses this view so students can see the tissues arranged from the outer epidermis inward to the central pith.
How does a monocot root differ from a dicot root?
A monocot root shows a central pith surrounded by many alternating xylem and phloem bundles, while a dicot root has fewer xylem bundles and little or no pith.
Who supplies the Transverse Section of Monocot Root Chart?
The chart is offered by Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India. A single quotation can combine it with root slides, plant anatomy models and the other botany charts in the range for a school, college or distributor order.
