Question 5
Why does activity 1.1 ask for a peel of betel epidermis as well as a stem cross-section?
The right answer is the one marked above.
Because the epidermis is a single sheet of like cells, so one tissue can be seen on its own. Nothing overlaps, so it is the easiest place to see what a tissue actually is.
A stem cross-section shows several tissues at once, which is exactly why it needs the classification before it can be read.
