TISSUES Flashcards
4 Major Group of Organs:
ROOTS
STEMS
LEAVES
FLOWERS
Group of cells performing a function?
TISSUES
3 Basic Tissue Patterns:
Herbaceous Dicot
Woody Dicots
Monocot
Permanent regions of growth?
MERISTEMATIC TISSUES OR MERISTEM
where cells actively divide?
MERISTEMATIC TISSUES OR MERISTEM
Typically small, six-sided, box-like structures, with large nucleus, near the center and with or without vacuoles at all?
MERISTEMATIC TISSUES OR MERISTEM
meristematic tissues found at the tips of roots and shoots, which increase in length?
APICAL MERISTEM
Increase in length as Apical Meristem produces new cells. Type of growth?
PRIMARY GROWTH
3 Primary Meristem:
PROTODERM
GROUND MERISTEM
PROCAMBIUM
The tissues that the 3 primary meristems are producing?
PRIMARY TISSUES
Produce tissues that increase the girth of roots and stems?
LATERAL MERISTEM
Such growth in Lateral Meristem?
SECONDARY GROWTH
Often referred as simply to “Cambium”
VASCULAR CAMBIUM
Produces secondary tissues that functions primarily in support and conduction?
VASCULAR CAMBIUM
form of a thin cylinder of mostly brick-shaped cells?
CAMBIAL
responsible for most of the increase in plant’s girth as it grows
CAMBIAL CYLINDER
individual remaining cells of the cambium?
INITIALS
sister cells of Initials?
DERIVATIVES
runs the lengths and stems of woody plants?
CORK CAMBIUM
Tissues laid down by the vascular cambium and the cork cambium are called?
SECONDARY TISSUES
In the vicinity of nodes they have other meristematic tissues called?
INTERCALARY MERISTEM
what are the SIMPLE TISSUES:
PARENCHYMA
COLLENCHYMA
SCLERENCHYMA
most abundant cell types, found in almost all major parts of higher plants
PARENCHYMA TISSUE
Type of Parenchyma Tissue:
- with extensive air spaces
AERENCHYMA TISSUE
