and phloem running lengthwise through the
ground tissue of shoots

enclosed in a layer of epidermis one cell
thick.

mesophyll and parallel veins

28
Q

ROOTS: EXTERNAL STRUCTURE

A

The root system is as extensive as the shoot system. Main functions are to take up water and mineral ions from the soil, anchor the plant, and store nutrients.

The primary root germinates from seed develops into a
taproot in Eudicots and a fibrous root system in monocots.

29
Q

A

Roots: Internal Structure
1-WATER AND SUBSTANCES ENTER A ROOT BY CROSSING EPIDERMAL CELLS; SEEP INTO PCHYME CELLS THAT FORM CORTEX REGION OF ROOT
*GROUND TISSUE=PCHYME=NUTRIENTS

2 WATER REACHES THE ENDODERMIS -SURROUNDS THE VASCULAR SYSTEM ROOTS ARE THE ONLY SYSTEM THAT HAVE THIS SOLUTES ENTER VASCULAR SYSTEM

  1. Inside the endodermis is the…
    CYLINDER OF PERICYCLE= one or two layers of parenchyma cells –> CYLINDER GIVES RISE TO LATERAL ROOTS
    ———————————————————
  2. Water and dissolved substances enter a root by
    crossing epidermal cells and seeping into
    parenchyma cells that form the cortex region of the
    root
  3. Water then reaches the *ENDODERMIS** – a cylindrical layer or parenchyma that control which solutes enter the vascular system
  4. Inside the endodermis is the…
    CYLINDER OF PERICYCLE= one or two layers of parenchyma cells –> CYLINDER GIVES RISE TO LATERAL ROOTS
