Lesson 5 - Plants Tissues Flashcards
Tissue system that provides an outer covering for the plant body
Dermal Tissue System
Tissue system that conducts materials throughout the plant body
Vascular tissue system
All tissues of the plant body other than vascular tissue and dermal tissue
Ground Tissue System
Dermal tissue system
provides an outer covering for the plant body
Vascular Tissue System
tissue system that conducts materials throughout the plant body
Ground tissue system
All tissues of the plant body other than vascular tissue and dermal tissue
Components of Vascular Tissue System
Xylem and Phloem
Transports water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant.
Xylem
Phloem
Transports sugars produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to other parts of the plant.
Three types of cell in Ground Tissue System
Parenchyma, Collenchyma, Sclerenchyma
Three types of cell in Ground Tissue System
Parenchyma, Collenchyma, Sclerenchyma
Parenchyma
For photosynthesis and storage.
Collenchyma
For flexible support
Sclerenchyma
For rigid support.
consists of the epidermis, which protects the plant against water loss and infection.
