Dicotyledonous Root Lateral Section Model, 400X Enlarged MG17221

The Dicotyledonous Root Lateral Section Model, 400X Enlarged (MG17221) is a highly detailed biological teaching model designed to illustrate the internal structure of a dicot root in an enlarged, easy-to-understand format. Ideal for botany and life science education, this model helps students visualize complex plant anatomy that is typically only observable under a microscope.

Magnified 400 times, the model clearly displays the organization of root tissues, including the epidermis, cortex, endodermis, and central vascular cylinder (stele). It highlights the arrangement of xylem and phloem, which in dicots typically form a central, star-shaped pattern—an important distinguishing feature from monocot roots.

This model provides a clear understanding of how dicot roots function in water absorption, nutrient transport, and structural support, making it an essential tool for both classroom instruction and laboratory demonstrations.

Dicotyledonous Root Lateral Section Model 400X Enlarged

This 4-part model is 400 times life-size and shows the structure of a dicotyledonous root in transverse and longitudinal section. All the main structures are well represented in detail. This model is divided into four segments including the following: the first part describes the end of the root with cap the second illustrates the zone of distension and the last part shows the mature region of meristems. Accompanying an interactive 3D anatomical model with augmented reality is a great tool to encourage learning and support. This platform allows students to engage in comparative analysis of anatomical models as they compare and contrast the structure of individual organs. This initiative also provides a platform for continuing education providing opportunities for all students to increase their knowledge of anatomy physiology and pathophysiology.
