A
The color of cobalt chloride paper when it is dry
Blue
It protects the part where the primary growth happens
Root cap
A device used to estimate transpiration rates.
Potometer
The development of stem begins from the ______.
This is an ear-like lobe structure found in monocots
Auricle
What cut is administered to examine the movement of the dye in Santan and Coleus stem?
Longitudinal
A structure in the leaf that is attached to the stem
Petiole
In Plant Morphology, what are the two systems?
Shoot and Root Systems
An extension of an epidermal cell of a root that increases absorptive capacity of the root
Root Hair
Arrangement of leaves on the stem
Phyllotaxy
A band of waterproof material around the radial and transverse cells of the endodermis. Ensures that water and minerals enter the xylem only by passing through the endodermal cells.
CASPARIAN STRIP
What was the purpose of adding nail polish on both sides of the leaf?
To check for the presence of open/closed stomates.
Name three structures found in the epidemis of a plant
Stomates, Trichomes, Root hairs
Name the two structures for long distance transport of water in plants
Vessel elements and tracheids.
A layer of cells just inside the endodermis of the root. Gives rise to lateral roots.
Pericycle
What are the three main functions of the stem?
Support, Conduct, and Produce new living tissues.
What are the two vascular tissues?
Xylem and Phloem
Name three structures found commonly in monocot leaves.
Sheath, Ligule, and Auricle
What theory allows the observation of the cobalt chloride paper turning into pink?
Tension-Cohesion Theory
Name the three primary meristems
Protoderm, Ground Meristem, and Procambium
Name the three ways for plants to move water in a short-distance
Simple diffusion/osmosis, Symplast, Apoplast
Name three structures present in stems that are not found in roots.
Nodes, Internodes, Leaves/Buds
Name four factors affecting stomatal movement
Light, Moisture, Temperature, CO2 concentration
A specialized aerial root produced by certain trees living in swampy habitats. May facilitate gas exchange between the atmosphere and submerged roots.
PNEUMATOPHORE
In the cobalt chloride paper test, why is the paper on the underside of the leaf turns pink first?
Because the stomates are found on the underside/lower epidermis of the leaves.
