25
Stem function
Supports leaves and flower for height | Transports water and minerals from roots to leaves
26
Petiole
Stalk of the leave
27
Sessile
leaves that do not have a petiole
28
Venation
Patterns of veins on leaves
29
Parallel ventation
Found in monocots eg grass
30
Eg of monocotyledons
Grass
31
Net venation
Veins form a branching netowork | Found in most dicots eg rose
32
Eg of dicotyledons
Rose
33
Leaf function
Photosynthesis Transpiration Gas exchange
34
Dermal tissue forms..
Covering layer on a plant
35
Another word for dermal tissie
Epidermas
36
Dermal tissue function
Protect
37
D.T secondary function
Coated with a waxy cuticle to prevent water loss from the plant
38
Ground tissue function
Photosynthesis
39
Vascular tissue consists of
Xylem and phloem
40
Vacular tissue function
Transports materials throughout the body
41
What are the 2 cells in xylem called
Tracheids and vessels
42
Xylem vessels
Are more prutine than vessels. They are the only type of xylem found in coniferous trees
43
Coniferous
Pine
44
Xylem vessel
Wider than tracheids and their walls break down to form a continuous tube
45
What is phloem mainly composed of
Sieve tubes and companion cells
46
Phloem is a..
Loving tissue that transports water
47
Phloem walls are made of
Cellulose
48
Location of phloem
Roots Stems Leaves Flowers
49
Lignin
A strengthening material found in some plant cell walls
50
Cotyledon
A seed leaf
51
Flowering plant
Are subdivided into monocots and dicots
52
