Biology Chapter 31(exam II)

angiosperm, has one seed leaf, leaves veins are parallel, vascular bundles are scattered, floral parts are multiples of three(6), fibrous roots are shallow and branched

angiosperm, has two seed leaves, leaves veins are branched, vascular bundles are in rings, floral parts are multiples of 4 or 5, taproot system (deeper in the ground, not highly branched)

anchors the plant in soil, absorbs and transports minerals and water, stores food, also root hairs increase surface area

made of stems (for support), leaves (for photosynthesis), and flower (for reproduction)

attachment point for leaves and flowers;
portion of stem between node

horizontal stem, grows along the ground, reproduces asexually (strawberries)

run either above or just below the surface of ground, function in reproduction, function in food storage, having buds can also form new plants

located at the end of rhizomes, function is food storage, also reproduction (potatos of potato plant)

part of leaf attached to the stem, function is store food and water (celery, long structure with leaves at the end)

structures used for climbing

used for defense

found above cellular level of organization, below orgal level, tissues form larger structures called organs

outer protective covering (epidermus) function= protection from things getting in and water loss, gas exchange

conducting tissues, function= transport things within plant, support

filler material between dermal and vascular system, function= storage and support and photosynthesis

most abundant type of plant cell, function= metabolism, aerobic respiration, food storage, produces the other four types of cells

provide support for plant while its still growing (strings of celery stalks)

dead cells in plants, thick cell wall containing protein lignin

located in sclerenchyma cells, long/slender cells, arranged in bundles

located in sclerenchyma cells, shorter/thicker cells, hard coating, irregular (hardness on nuts and seeds)

dead cells in plants, found in xylem tissue

located in water-conducting cells, long/thin cells, tapered with cells

located in water-conducting cells, wider/shorter cells, less tapered in cells

living cells in plants, phloem tissue, dont contain many organelles, companion cells share nutrients with this cell
