Continually produced by:

Describe their initial internode elongation

A

Produced in precise geometric patterns

They are continually produced by the meristem

Initially have little internode elongation

47
Q

Phyllotaxy

A

Precise geometric patterns

48
Q

What happens as new leaves displace old ones?

A

Internodal elongation

49
Q

Leaf primordial processes lead to what?

A

Repetitive phytomeres

50
Q

Internode elongation advantages

A

Captures more sunlight by reducing leaf overlap

Grows taller than competition

51
Q

Internode elongation disadvantages

A

Lodging, hollow pith, protoxylem lacuna occurs in monocots

52
Q

How does stem growth occur?

A

By cell enlargement in the internal region

53
Q

What develops in older leaf primordia axils?

A

Bud primordia

54
Q

Apical dominance

A

Terminal bud inhibits lateral bud growth

55
Q

What happens if the terminal bud is removed?

A

A lateral bud develops and becomes the terminal bud

56
Q

What happens as the lateral buds get further from the terminal bud?

A

They will develop

57
Q

Dicot stem procambium distribution
