anatomy Flashcards
(126 cards)
growth is restricted to which region
meristems
which meristem produce primary tissue
apical meristem
cells left behind from shoot apical meristem constitute what
axillary bud
axillary buds are capalble of forming
branch or flower
meristem +nt b/w mature tissue
intercalary
where are intercalary meri. present and what they do
present in grasses and regenrate parts eaten by grazing
what are the two primary meristems
apical and intercalary
meristem that occur in mature woody regions
secondary or lateral
shape of sec/lateral meristems
cylindrical
eg of lateral meristems
fascicular vascular cambium (lateral but not secondary) ,interfascicular cambium , cork cambium
which meristem produce dermal tissues , ground tissues and vascular tissues
specific regions of apical meristem
which meristem makes epidermis
protoderm
how many types of cells present in plants
4 ( meris. , paren. , collen. , scleren. )
most abundant tissue
parenchyma
to which parts do parenchyma gives support / mechanical strength
none
parenchyma shape
isodiamteric
parenchyma cell wall
thin and cellulosic
parenchyma function
photosynthesis , storage , secretion
how are parenchyma packed
very closely with little or no intercellular space
collenchyma location
below epidermis , in young stem or petioles of leaves
how is collenchyma found
either in patches or homogenous layer
where and what is deposited in collenchyma
cellulose , hemicellulose and pectin is deposited at corner which makes it thick at corner
where is collenchyma absent
dicot roots and monocots me totally absent
collenchyma cell wall?
thin but thick at corner
