The Plant Body Flashcards
(27 cards)
It is part of THE PLANT BODY that is generally underground; obtains water and dissolved minerals for plant; usually anchors the plant firmly in place.
Root system
It is part of THE PLANT BODY that is generally aerial; obtains sunlight and carbon dioxide for plant.
Shoot system
A SHOOT SYSTEM is consists of what?
- A vertical stem bearing leaves (main organs of photosynthesis)
- Flowers and fruits (reproductive structures)
These are undeveloped embryonic shoots develop on stems.
Buds
What are the 3 TISSUE SYSTEMS in Plant Body?
Ground, Vascular, Dermal
It is a type of TISSUE SYSTEM that includes all tissues of the plant body other than vascular tissues and dermal tissues.
Ground Tissue System
It is a type of TISSUE SYSTEM that conducts materials throughout the plant body.
Vascular Tissue System
It is a type of TISSUE SYSTEM that provides an outer covering for the plant body.
Dermal Tissue System
What are the 3 types of GROUND TISSUE?
Parenchyma, Collenchyma, Sclerenchyma
It is a type of GROUND TISSUE CELL that is thin walled, may contain chlorophyll, loosely packed.
Parenchyma Cell
It is a type of GROUND TISSUE CELL that is a living plant cell with moderately but unevenly thickened primary walls.
Collenchyma Cell
It is a type of GROUND TISSUE CELL that the plant cell has extremely thick walls; provides strength and support to plant body.
Sclerenchyma Cell
It is a type of GROUND TISSUE that is composed of cells with thin primary walls and its function include photosynthesis, storage, and secretion.
Parenchyma Tissue
It is a type of GROUND TISSUE that is composed of cells with unevenly thickened primary cell walls, and its function is to provide flexible structural support.
Collenchyma Tissue
It is a type of GROUND TISSUE that is composed of cells that has both primary and secondary cell walls. These cells are often dead at maturity, but provide structural support.
Sclerenchyma Tissue
It is a type of TISSUE SYSTEM that conducts materials throughout the plant body and provides strength and support.
Vascular Tissue System
What are the two main parts of the VASCULAR TISSUE SYSTEM?
Xylem and Phloem
It is a type of VASCULAR TISSUE that conducts water and dissolved minerals throughout the plant body.
Xylem
It is a type of VASCULAR TISSUE that is complex and conducts food throughout the plant body.
Phloem
Conducting cells of phloem are sieve-tube elements assisted by _________ _____?
Companion Cells
It is a type of TISSUE SYSTEM that makes up the outer protective covering of the plant body.
Dermis Tissue System
What are the two main parts of the DERMIS TISSUE?
Epidermis and Periderm
It is a type of DERMIS TISSUE that is the outermost tissue layer, usually one cell thick.
Epidermis
It is a type of DERMIS TISSUE that covers the primary plant body (leaves, young stems and roots)
Epidermis
