25
Major Root Functions
Stores food and nutrients
26
Major Root Functions
Reproduction/ competition
27
Root hair
Take in water/nutrients
28
Pholem in Root system
Carries food to and from leaves
29
Xylem in Root system
Carries water/ nutrients up the stem
30
Root Cap
Protects the root as it grows down into the soil.
31
Cortex
Stores food, like starch
32
Root tip
Grows
33
Stems
Structure/ support for elevation of leaves, flower, fruit
34
Stems
Directs to light (phototropism)
35
Stems
Transport nutrients
36
Stems
Provide a place for the plant to keep its flower and fruits
37
Parts and Functions of stem
Epidermis, pholem, cambium, xylem, pith
38
Epidermis
Outer layer of stem, protects from wind/rain (wax)
39
Pholem
Transports nutrients, both ways
40
Cambium
Area of high cell growth. Make sure xylem and phloem are growing.
41
Xylem
Transports nutrients one way. More abundant in trees.
42
Pith
Very center
43
Functions of leaves 1
Photosynthesis, sunlight and CO2 and H2O - C6H12O6, glucose +O2
44
Function of leaves :2
Stomata(pore) open | 40% of water cycle
45
Function of leaves 3
Floral- attract insects which lead to pollination
46
Function of leaves 4
Food storage- store glucose
47
Function of leaves 5
``` Special uses Banana- physical support Venus flytrap- trap prey Camouflage- coloring Reproduction ```
48
Leave Adaptation: Thin
More surface area for photosynthesis
49
Leave adaptation: veins
Transport nutrients and water
50
Leave adaptation: Stomata
Allow carbon dioxide in
51
Leave Adaptation: chlorophyll
Carotenoids: orange Xanthophylls: yellow Anthocyanins: red/ purple color Allows present BUT short day/ long day
52
Life cycle of moss: step 1
Release of spores from capsules
53
Life cycle of moss: step 2
Spores open when the operculum degenerates
54
Life cycle of moss: step 3
A single spore germinates to form a branch, from which a leafy gametophyte develops.
55
Life cycle of gymnosperm:
*picture*
56
Cuticle
The outer layer of living tissue
57
Upper epidermis
Layer of a cell that doesn't contain chloroplast
58
Palisade Mesophyll cell
Located in the leaves
59
Bundle sheath
Forms a sheath around the vascular bundles. Contains chloroplasts
60
Lower Epidermis
contains stomata cells that help prevent water loss and regulate the exchange of gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, enabling plants to survive. Include a waxy cuticle
61
Guard cells
Curved cells surrounding the stomata
62
Spongy Mesophyll
Circulates air and gas exchanges
