LECTURE CHAPTER 27 PLANT TISSUES Flashcards
PLANT TISSUES
- )Plant cells are organized as:
- All plant parts consist of what tissues?
- ______ AND ______
1.)Plant cells are organized as:
CELLS->tissues –>organs –>organ systems
**Vascular plants have two organ systems:
shoots and roots***
- All plant parts consist of the same three tissues
(DERMAL,VASCULAR, GROUND)
3.Monocots and eudicots (flowering plants)
• Examples of monocots
• Lilies, orchids, grasses, and palms
- Examples of eudicots
- Shrubs and trees, vines, tomatoes, and dandelions
All plant parts consist of the same three tissues:
•__________
- __________
*
• _________
All plant parts consist of the same three tissues:
- ***DERMAL TISSUES: cover and protect plant surfaces
- Dermal tissue consists of a single tissue called epidermis
• **VASCULAR TISSUES: distribute water and nutrients
• Primary components are Xylem and Phloem
• **Meristems—HELLA CELL DIVISION also associated with vascular tissue
• a region of plant tissue, found chiefly at the growing tips of roots and shoots, consisting of
actively dividing cells forming new tissue
STEM CELLS= unspecialized that become specialized later on
• ***GROUND TISSUES: make up most of a plant
DERMAL TISSUES:
DERMAL TISSUES—cover and protect plant surfaces
• Dermal tissue consists of a single tissue called epidermis

3. Monocots and dicots (flowering plants) • Differences--- • Examples of monocots: • • Examples of dicots: •
- Monocots and dicots (flowering plants)
• Different tissue organization
• Different number of cotyledons (seed leaves) 1/2
• Examples of monocots :
Lilies, orchids, grasses, and palms
• Examples of eudicots :
Shrubs and trees, vines, tomatoes, and dandelions
• Simple plant tissues
vs
• Complex plant tissues
***Simple plant tissues
(ground tissues – makes up majority of plant)
• Consist of one cell type
• Parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma in ground tissue
***Complex plant tissues
• Consist of two or more cell types
• Dermal and vascular tissues
SIMPLE PLANT TISSUES
1. Parenchyma tissue (‘general purpose’ plant cell)
- Collenchyma tissue
- Sclerenchyma tissue
Simple Plant Tissues
1. Parenchyma tissue (‘general purpose’ plant cell)
• Makes up most of the soft primary growth
• Thin walled, pliable cells are alive at maturity and retain capacity to divide
• Participates in photosynthesis, storage, secretion, and wound healing
- Collenchyma tissue
• Remain alive after maturity for growth
• Flexible cell walls thickened with cellulose give structural support - Sclerenchyma tissue
• Provide mechanical support and protection in mature plants STRICTLY SUPPORT
• Secondary walls are thick and strengthens and waterproofs cell wall
• Rigid cell walls thickened with CELLULOSE and LIGININ (what makes the plant stiff)
• Structural support to resist stretching or compression
• Used for cloth, rope, paper and other commercial products

1.EPIDERMIS
2.VASCULAR TISSUES
(XYLEM, PHLOEM)
COMPLEX PLANT TISSUES 1. Epidermis • • • •
EPIDERMIS
- Single layer of cells that covers all primary plant parts
- Waxy secretions form cuticle; covers the external surfaces of plant to restrict water loss
- Specialized openings called stomata regulate water and gaseous exchange with air
- ***PERIDERM- replaces epidermis when roots and stems increase in diameter and become woody
- Cork cambium, cork cells, and parenchyma cells
- Cork cambium – LATERAL MERISTEM that is responsible for secondary growth that replaces the epidermis in roots and stems
COMPLEX PLANT TISSUES
2.Vascular tissues –
-
-
2.Vascular tissues – function in the distribution of water,
minerals, and sugars throughout the plant
-Xylem
-Phloem
-Xylem
COMPLEX PLANT TISSUES
-Xylem
• Water conducting tubes
• Made up of tracheids, vessel elements – both waterproofed with lignin and can transport water upward and laterally in the plant—
- TRACHEIDS- are long cells with tapered, overlapping ends
- VESSEL ELEMENTS- are short cells joined end to end to form a tube with perforation plates
-Phloem
COMPLEX PLANT TISSUES
-Phloem
• Sugar conducting tubes
• Made up of sieve elements and supporting companion cells—
- SIEVE ELEMENTS are connected end to end at a sieve plate to form tubes
- COMPANION CELLS – a type of parenchyma cell, located adjacent to the tubes and function toLOAD AND UNLOAD SUGARS from the phloem
Stems: Internal Structure
Stems: Internal Structure
• Stems provide support and position leaves
for photosynthesis
• *Typically have nodes, which give rise to new
shoots or roots
• Xylem and phloem are organized as
vascular bundles
• A vascular bundle is= a cord of primary xylem
and phloem running lengthwise through the
ground tissue of shoots
• Arrangement differs between monocots and
eudicots
• **In Eudicots, vascular bundles arranged as a ring
around a central pith on the peripheral
•*****In Monocots the vascular bundles are scattered
STEM SPECIALIZATIONS
Stolons:
AKA STOLEN=RUNNERS
• Stolons: Stems that branch horizontally from the main
stem of the plant
• Roots and shoots that sprout from nodes develop into new plants
• AKA runners
STEM SPECIALIZATIONS
Rhizomes:
• Rhizomes: Fleshy stems that grow under the soil
parallel to its surface
• Found underground, often sending out roots and shoots from its nodes
• In many plants, main stem is a rhizome; often serves as the primary region for storing
GINGER ROOT- STEM SPECIALIZATION NOT A ROOT
STEM SPECIALIZATIONS
Bulbs:
- Bulbs: stem and scales (leaves)
- Structurally a short stem with fleshy leaves
- Contain starch reserves (food reserves)
- Example: ONIONS / SHALLOTS
