THE BODY OF PLANTS Flashcards
are non-reproductive organs of plants which include the leaves, stem, and roots
vegetative organs
functions of the roots
- anchorage
- absorption of water & dissolved minerals
- food storage
is the origin of roots
radicle and hypocotyl
is a vascular tissue that transport nutrients such as sucrose and amino acids throughout the plant
phloem
is a vascular tissue that transports water throughout the plant
xylem
where the branches of roots originate from
pericycle
do young roots bear hair that are fragile projections from the epidermal cell and increase absorption capability
