QUIZ 3 Flashcards
Are found in the growing areas of plants
Meristematic tissues
Are composed of non-dividing cells.
Permanent tissues
is responsible for the primary growth of plants. Can be found in the ends or root tips of plants
Apical meristems
Derivatives
of apical
meristems
- Ground meristem
- Protoderm
- Procambium
is responsible for the secondary growth of plants. It is the passage way and it is the vessels and veins of a plant
Lateral meristems
Vascular cambium gives rise to the ____ & _____
secondary xylem and phloem
gives rise to cork cells which replaces epidermis of plants once they mature. It has primary phloem and it is Nonliving / bark
Cork cambium
Two kinds of Lateral Meristem
Vascular & Cork Cambium
The ___ is found in the wood, smooth, plywood, like in the flesh part of the trunk
Vascular Cambium
leaves to roots & roots to leaves
phloem & xylem
are composed of one kind of cell.
Simple permanent tissues
are composed of two or more kinds of cells.
Complex permanent tissues
Simple Permanent tissues has one cell and it has two kinds namely __ & ___
(Epidermal) & (Ground) tissues
It covers the whole body of nonwoody and young woody plants and is protected by a waxy cuticle.
Epidermis
Prevents loss of water and invasion of disease-causing microorganisms
cuticle
The epidermis in roots has _____ which help in increasing the absorption capacity of roots.
Absorption of water
root hairs
Are epidermal outgrowths in leaves and in stems, the epidermis has _____. These hair-like outgrowths prevent water loss and reflect excess light.
trichomes
The lower and upper parts of leaves are protected by the ___
Epidermis
The lower epidermis of a leaf has ___
guard cells
are specialized structures on the lower epidermis that regulate the opening and closing of
stomata.
Guard cells
are slit-like structures on the lower epidermis of leaves which aids in the exchange of gases between plants and the environment.
Stomata
cells are mostly responsible for the synthesis and storage of plant food.
Parenchyma
cells provides a furnishing flexible support to immature parts of plants. And it provides support to the plant’s body
Collenchyma
Has two kinds, namely sclereids and fibers. And it provides support to the plant’s body.
Sclerenchyma
strengthen seed coats and are responsible for gritty-textured flesh of some fruits
Sclereids
Are the only complex permanent tissues in plants.
Vascular Tissues
are thin and elongated cells where water passes through. Can be found in the Xylem
Tracheids
They have perforated plates that allow the transport of water through the vessels. Can be found in the Xylem
Vessel Elements
is composed of sieve-tube elements that help in the transport of
nutrients throughout the plant’s body.
Phloem
Plants have two major tissues, namely
meristematic and permanent tissues
give rise to permanent tissues which will differentiate into specialized cells with certain functions.
Meristematic tissues
are generally responsible for photosynthesis, support, and transport of water and nutrients
Permanent tissues
Apical and lateral meristems are responsible for
primary and secondary growth, respectively.
Primary growth is an increase in plant’s
Height
Secondary growth is an increase in plant’s
Diameter & Girth
Are also called fundamental tissues because their functions are essential for the growth and development of plants.
Ground tissues
is responsible for storage and
photosynthesis.
Parenchyma
provide
support to the plant’s body.
Collenchyma and sclerenchyma
____ are used commercially as components of making rope and flax fibers.
Fibers
2 kinds of Vascular Tissue
Complex permanent Xylem & Phloem
____ gives rise to wood
Secondary xylem
____ makes up the bark
primary phloem
