Plant tissue Flashcards
Simple permanent
Parenchyma
Collenchyma
Sclerenchyma
Covers the plant (outer layer ng roots, stems, and leaves)
Dermal tissue
Conduction of water and mineral salts from roots to top of plants (one way)
Xylem
group of cells of the same type or of the mixed type, having a common origin and performing an identical function.
Plant Tissue
composed of cells that have lost the power of division, having attained their definite form and sizes (differentiated and mature).
Permanent tissue
Complex tissue
Xylem
Phloem
Locates at the internodes sa leaves (Increase of height of the plant)
Intercalary meristem
cells are immature
Meristematic tissue
Ground tissue is divided into?
Parenchyma
Collenchyma
Sclerenchyma
It develops later from non-meristematic tissues at a certain stage of development of an organ of a plant.
Secondary meristem
Locates at the tips of the roots and the shoots ((Increase of height of the plant)
Apical meristem
Meristematic tissue basis
Based on Origin
Based on Location
Based on Function
the youngest stage of the growing organ
Promeristem
Functions are defense, transpiration, and gas exchange (solid, liquid, gas)
Dermal tissue
Reaches the deeper parts of the plants (two way)
Phloem
innermost tissue and gives rise to the xylem and phloem.
Procambium
have cells which are continuously dividing.
Meristematic tissue
2 types of Xylem
Tracheid (mechanical support)
Vessels (enables water to flow freely)
Sides of stem and roots of the plant (Increase in diameter of the plant)
Lateral meristem
Xylem and Phloem
Vascular tissue
- outermost plant tissue and forms the epidermis
- located around the outside of the stem and protects the plants from any mechanical shocks.
Protoderm
Supporting elements in the plant but are much more rigid than collenchyma cells
Sclerenchyma
- In woody plants, epidermis to periderm as secondary growth allows the plant to grow in girth
- Periderm functions as the first line of defense for the plant
Dermal tissue
- cells are large with thick walls.
- gives rise to ground tissue
Ground meristem
