Q

Comparison of eudicots & monocots

  • root
  • veins
  • flower parts
  • pattern of vascular bundles
  • root xylem / phloem patterns
A

Dicots

  • taproot
  • net like veins
  • flower parts in multiples of 4 or 5
  • ringed vascular bundles around outer part of stem
  • root phloem between xylem arms

Monocot

  • fibrous root
  • parallel veins
  • flower parts in multiples of 3
  • vascular bundles throughout stem
  • root xylem / phloem in a ring

Q

Primary growth (4)

A

= Elongation of plant organs
• root, stems, and leaves
• all plants
• produces primary tissues ( from SAM & RAM)

Q

Secondary Growth (4)

A

= Expansion of plant organs (increased in diameter)

  • roots and stems (NO LEAVES)
  • NOT ALL PLANTS
  • produce secondary tissues (Woody tissues)

Wood

18
Q

Secondary phloem

A

Inner bark

19
Q

Root functions

A
  • Absorb water and minerals
  • anchoring the plants in soil
  • storing nutrients and water
  • primary growth
  • MAY have secondary growth
20
Q

Radicle

A

When a seed germinates, the primary root (the radicle) grows out and downward

21
Q

Shoot system (4)

A
  • consists of stems and leaves
  • primary growth
  • MAY have secondary growth
  • stems function in transport of water / minerals / solutes through the plant and positioning the leaves for maximum exposure to sunlight
22
Q

Leaves (2)

A
  • PRIMARY GROWTH ONLY

- function in photosynthesis & transpiration
