What common plant has hardwood?
angiosperm
25
this helps in identification of species
bark types
25
dominating growth of the plant by hindering the growth of branches
apical dominance
25
what type of modified stem is a banana plant
corm
26
what are the two types of cell the vascular cambium is composed of?
fusiform initial cells and radial initial cells.
27
indicator of the years of tree
growth ring
27
science in analyzing tree growth ring patterns. Uses the patter to study climate change.
dendrochronology
28
indicates warm year
thick ring
29
indicates cold or dry year
thin ring
29
protects the stem from water loss and invasion of insects, bacteria, and fungi.
cork cambium
29
is a plant organ bearing leaves and buds. Its chief function is to elongate and orient the shoot in a way that maximizes photosynthesis by the leaves.
stem
30
above ground modified stem (4)
runners/ stolon, cladodes, succulent stems, thorns
31
Underground modified stem (4)
bulb, rhizome, corn, tuber
32
found in the nodes for regeneration
intercalary meristem
33
modified stem function for photosynthesis
cladodes
34
modified stem for conservation of water
succulent stem
35
are short shoots that have thick, fleshy leaves
bulb
36
fleshy horizontal stems that allow a plant to spread underground
rhizome
37
are vertical, thick stems that have thin, papery leaves
corm
38
are horizontal like rhizomes, but they grow for only a short period and are mainly a means of storing nutrients
tubers
39
examples of rosette
lettuce, brussel sprouts, cabbage
39
angle between the stem and node
leaf axil
40
the precursor of a branch or lateral shoot
axillary bud
41
What hormone is responsible for the shrubs and bushes
Auxin
41
dominating the growth of the plant by hindering the growth of branches.
apical dominance
42
is the mark left by a leaf after it falls off the twig.
leaf scar
43
one of many raised pores in the stem of a woody plant that allows gas exchange between the atmosphere and the internal tissues.
lenticel
44
late wood and smaller
summer wood
45
early wood and larger
spring wood
45
has cutin waxes that is impermeable to water loss
cuticle
46
what part pf interfascicular cambium Differentiate from
cortical cell A
46
Increases the vascular flow and supports the shoot. A cylinder of meristematic cells, it adds secondary xylem to the inside and secondary phloem to the outside.
Vascular cambium
47
inside the vascular bundles, from the procambium
fascicular cambium
48
3 primary meristem
protoderm, ground meristem, procambium
49
When viewing a trees it is broken to scales and peels horizontally
lenticels.
