The similarity in structure and working of the root endodermis to the animal intestinal epithelium.

Introduction:

The endodermal layer in plants is found predominantly in roots which helps in regulating water and other substances. It is a single layered cell that borders the cortex of root.

The intestines of animals are composed of four main layers-mucosa epithelium, submucosa, muscularis and outer protective serosa. The intestinal has goblet cells and absorptive cells as well.
