This structure allows for secondary growth.
What is the vascular cambium?
What is the cork cambium? (Not best answer but also ok.)
These never have true secondary growth.
What are monocots?
These are three main functions of a root system.
What are gathering nutrients and water from soil, anchoring, storage, hormone synthesis, stem support, and/or gas exchange?
These primary meristems develop in the region of cell division near the apical meristem of a root.
What are the protoderm, ground meristem, and procambium?
Three ways that monocot and dicot leaves differ generally include these.
What is venation (parallel vs net), petiole (absent vs present), and vascular bundle anatomy (Kranz vs not)?
Could also say bulliform cells vs not, non structured mesophyll vs structured, bundle sheath collenchyma extensions vs not)
This type of a plant has vascular bundles arranged in a ring near the outside of the stem.
What is a dicot, annual dicot stem, or herbaceous dicot?
A specialized stem that is short, vertical, and underground.
What is a corm?
This term describes the root and soil interface.
What is the rhizosphere?
Root hairs are common here.
What is the region of maturation?
Pitchers, sticky pads, and bladders are all examples of these.
What are specialized leaves?
What are carnivorous leaves?
These are two of the complex primary plant tissues.
What are mesophyll, xylem, phloem, epidermis, and/or secretory tissues.
This structure helps you identify the composition of a leaf.
What is an axillary bud?
These are probably the most economically important roots in Minnesota.
What are sugar beets?
This structure surrounds the vascular tissue and is critical in maintaining water balance and flow.
What is the pericycle?
These are highly reduced leaves in cacti.
What are spines?
This is a complex secondary tissue.
What is secondary xylem or secondary phloem or periderm?
This structure replaces the cotex in stems with secondary growth.
What is the cork cambium?
This structure is constantly replaced, protective, and a little slimy.
What is the root cap?
Three macronutrients generally required by plants include these.
What are Hydrogen, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Magnesium, Sulfur, Potassium, and/or Calcium?
These types of plants have stomata present in recessed 'crypts'.
What are xerophytes?
These are the basic plant organs.
What are stems, roots, and leaves?
What are shoots and roots?
This trait of a plant body is established in the zygote.
What is apical-basal polarity?
This structure is responsible for growth toward a source of gravity.
What are amyloplasts?
What are haustoria?
Full of water, these cells open a tiny mouth.
What are guard cells?
