Lesson 1 part 4: types of cell in plant and animal kingdom Flashcards
is
located both in shoot
and root tips of a dicot
plant; and in root tips
only among monocot
plants.
Apical meristem
are
produced from meristematic
cells that quickly
differentiates and take on
specific function in plant
structure. However, unlike
meristematic cells,
permanent cells are fully
grown and no longer actively
dividing.
PERMANENT TISSUE
is
a special type of
meristematic cells found
among monocot plants.
* It is located where the
leaf bases connect to
the stem of the plant
and promotes the
lengthening of the stem
and increase the height
- Intercalary meristem
causes the stem
and roots of a dicot
plants to grow
larger in diameter.
* This type of growth
in dicot plants are
called secondary
where different
layers in stem and
roots can be
observe.
Lateral meristem
covers the plant and can
be found on the outer layer
of roots, stems and leaves.
* Dermal tissue covers and
protects the plant and
functions in transpiration,
gas exchange and defense
in plant structure.
Derma cells
are the
plumbing system of the plant. It allows water,
minerals, and dissolved sugars from
photosynthesis to pass through roots, stems,
leaves, and other parts of the plant. It is primary
composed of two types of conducting tissue: xylem
and phloem.
VASCULAR CELLS
transports
organic compounds such as
sugars from the site of
photosynthesis to rest of the
plant. It moves back and forth
within the sieve tube
element, passing through a
small opening called the
sieve plate.
Phloem tissue
are the
most abundant and
versatile cell type in
plants.
Parenchyma
transports water
and minerals from the roots to
different parts of the plant. The
conducting cells of the xylem
are called tracheary elements.
Xylem tissue
Plant cells that are not included in dermal or vascular
tissues are part of the supportive cells called as the _________
ground cells
is living
supportive tissue that
has elongated cells and
an unevenly thickened
primary cell wall. Its
main function is the
Collenchyma
is a dead
supportive tissue that consists
of long sclerenchyma fibers.
* Its main function is a support
of older plant organs, and
also hardening different parts
of plants.
Sclerenchyma
are the type of cells
specialized in giving protection to the
body, absorption of nutrients, and
secretion of chemicals.
EPITHELIAL CELLS
are
square in shape and are
commonly found in glands.
It functions for secretion or
absorption of materials.
* It lines the kidney tubules
and follicles of the thyroid
gland.
Simple cuboidal epithelium
- These are protective tissue consist of one layer of cells
that are in contact with basement membrane.
