how many cotydelons does a monocot seed have
one cotydelon
stores material
cortex
moves materials
vascular bundles
dead at maturity, moves minerals (inorganic nutrients) and water up a stem
xylem
living at maturity, moves organic nutrients (sugars, amino acids etc.) up a tree
phloem
outside covering. protects ye herbaceous stem
epidermis
one cotydelon
monocot seed
vascular bundles scattered in a stem
monocot stem
leaf veins form a parallel pattern
monocot leaf
what type of flower has parts in threes and multiples of three
monocot flower
two cotydelons
dicot seed
vascular bundles in a stem form distinct ring
dicot stem
leaf veins form a net pattern
dicot leaf
flower parts in fours or fives and their multiples
dicot flower
protects upper part of the leaf in leaf structure
upper epidermis
in the leaf structure what is underneath the epidermis where photosynthesis occurs
palisade mesophyll cell
in the leaf structure where does movement occur?
vein
in the leaf structure what layer protects the vein
bundle sheath cell
interior where photosynthesis occurs
spongy mesophyll cell
protects the lower part of the leaf
lower epidermis
regulates the stomatal opening
gaurd cell
pore where gas exchange occurs in leaf structure
stoma
this is accepted for movement of water and minerals through xylem
TACT theory
when the leaf loses h2O it is replaced by water from other cells
tension
