The sequence of zones in a longitudinal section of a root, starting from the bottom is as follows:
1. Zone of cell division - This is where new cells are produced by cell division.
2. Zone of elongation - The cells in this zone are undergoing elongation, which causes the root to grow in length.
3. Zone of maturation - The cells in this zone undergo differentiation and become the various cell types that make up the mature root.

Which of the Following Is the Correct Sequence of Zones
