plant tissue Flashcards
Derived from shoot and root apical meristems
Primary Plant Body (Herbaceous Body)
Composed of primary tissues
Primary Plant Body (Herbaceous Body)
Constitutes the herbaceous parts of a plant
Primary Plant Body (Herbaceous Body)
plant that never becomes woody nor covered with bark; often lives for less than 1 year; consists only of a primary plant body
Herb
Derived from meristems other than apical meristems
Secondary Plant Body (Woody Body)
Composed of secondary tissues: wood and bark
Secondary Plant Body (Woody Body)
Constitutes the woody, bark-covered parts of a plant
Secondary Plant Body (Woody Body)
• has primary tissues at its shoot and root tips, and a seedling consists only of primary tissues.
• But wood and bark (secondary tissues) arise inside the primary tissues of stems and roots after few mos.
Woody plant
group of cells that perform specific function
Tissues
Based on stage of development
a. Embryonic or meristematic
b. Permanent
Based on composition
a. Simple
b. Complex
tissues where the cells are in the mitotic state
Meristematic
MERISTEMATIC
Based on initiating cells
a. Primary meristem
b. Secondary meristem
c. Promeristem (primordial meristem)
MERISTEMATIC
Based on position in the plant body (Location)
a. Apical
b. Intercalary
c. Lateral/ Secondary Meristematic
MERISTEMATIC
Based on function
a. Protoderm
b. Procambium
c. Fundamental or Ground
embryonic epidermis (PRIMARY EPIDERMIS)
(Dermal Tissue System)
Protoderm
future cortex (PRIMARY GROUND TISSUE) (Ground Tissue System)
Ground Meristem
central cylinder (PRIMARY VASCULAR TISSUE) (Vascular Tissue System)
Procambium
TIP, Length
Apical Meristem
BODY, elongation
Intercalary Meristem
Thickness
Lateral/ Secondary Meristem
Three primary meristems:
• protoderm
• ground meristem
• procambium
In stems showing secondary growth
Lateral Meristems
Three primary tissues
• dermal tissue system
• ground tissue system
• vascular tissue system
(Parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma)
Ground tissue
Primary xylem and primary phloem
Vascular tissue
Permanent tissues
Simple permanent
Complex permanent
Simple permanent tissue
Parenchyma tissue
Collenchyma tissue
Schlerenchyma tissue
Complex Permanent
Xylem
Phloem
- cells are stable, no longer dividing
- It is differentiated into 2 types
Permanent
- composed of one type of cells
- differentiates into dermal or protective and ground or fundamental
- Classified based on the nature of cell wall
Simple permanent tissue
- composed of different kinds of cells but perform similar function
Complex permanent tissue
dermal and ground tissue
Simple permanent tissue
Vascular tissue
Complex permanent tissue
a mass of parenchyma cells; most common type of tissue constituting all soft parts of a plant
Parenchyma Tissue
- most common type of cell
- Has thin primary walls; large vacuole
- active metabolically and alive at maturity
- Numerous subtypes are specialized for particular tasks.
Parenchyma Cells
