PLANT AND ANIMAL TISSUES Flashcards
Plant tissues are divided into two kinds, what are those?
Meristematic and Permanent
These are cells that are capable of cell division
Meristematic
These are cells that are incapable of cell division
Permanent
What are the three subunits of meristematic tissues
Apical Meristem, Intercalary Meristem, and Lateral Meristem
These are the meristematic tissues that are located at root or shoot tips
Apical Meristem
These are meristematic tissues located at regions between the place where leaves are attached
Intercalary Meristem
These are meristematic tissues that are located in the stem
Lateral Meristem
What is the difference between simple and complex permanent tissue?
Simple permanent tissues are non-dividing cells consists of a single type of cell while complex permanent tissue non-dividing cells consists of more than one cell
What are the four types of Simple Permanent Tissue?
Epidermis, Parenchyma, Collenchyma, Sclerenchyma
It covers the stem, root, leaf, flower, and fruit.
Epidermis
It is found in cell walls of plants.
Parenchyma
What is Collenchyma
They’re located in the leaf stalks
These are very thick due to the deposition of lignin which are Found in seeds.
Sclerenchyma
What are the two types of Complex Permanent Tissue?
Xylem and Phloem
It is the complex tissue of plants, responsible for transporting water and other nutrients to the plants.
Xylem
