Plant Science

Fluid in between grana, where carbohydrate-formation reactions occur in the chloroplasts of plant cells photosynthesizing.

• Site of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.
• Form stacks of disks referred to as grana.
• Thylakoid membrane surrounding a thylakoid lumen.

Stacks of thylakoids.

• A category of plastid.
• They are non-pigmented.
• They are white and colorless, so they are located in roots and non-photosynthetic tissues.
• Specialized for bulk storage of starch and lipids and are then known as amyloplasts and elaioplasts.

The ground tissue ofnonwoody structures.

• Stemlike shoot above the cotyledons attached at the hypocotyl.
• In most plants the epicotyl will eventually develop into the leaves of the plant.
• Includes plumules.

• The rudimentary terminal bud of a plant embryo situated at the end of the epicotyl, consisting of the epicotyl and often of immature leaves.
• Forms the shoot of the plant.

The embryonic root of the plant, and grows downward in the soil.

Stem of a germinating seedling, found below the cotyledons and above the radicle.

The undifferentiated plant tissue from which new cells are formed, as that at the tip of a stem or root.

• A meristem at the tip of a plant shoot or root that causes the shoot or root to increase in length.
•  

• A meristem in vascular plants, such as the cambium, in which secondary growth occurs.
•
