Lesson 2: Tissue And Cell Modification Flashcards
Give the functions on the parts of plant flower,leaf, fruit,stem,root. upper is shoot system down is root system
•helps in reproduction
•perfroms photosynthesis
•protects the seeds
•supports the plant
•absorb water and minerals
What is called when cells are capable of cell division
Meristematic
What is called when mature cells are incapable of cell division
Permanent
Tissue composed of a single cell type examples are
Simple
•epidermis
•parenchyma
•collenchyma
•sclerenchyma
•chlorenchyma
Tissue composed of more than one cell type are?
Complex
•xylem
•phloem
•xylem vesicles
•sieve tubules
•tracheoids
•companion cells
Outermost cell layer protective role
Epidermis
Stems,roots and nutrient storage
Parenchyma
Shoots and leaves mechanical strength and flexibility
Collenchyma
Mechanical strength water condition
Sclerenchyma
Support the plant transport water and dissolved salts from root to stems and leaves
Xylem
Transport organic nutrients produced during photosynthesis
Phloem
Commonly seen outside the body coverings or as linings of organ cavities consists of tightly packed cells that form a continuous layer it provides protection and covers surface and lines body cavities it also acts as barriers from pathogens mechanical injuries and fluid loss
Epithelial tissue
Flat like
Squamous
