Plant Anatomy 2.0
100
Angiosperms can be further classified into these two groups
monocots and dicots
100
absorbs water and nutrients into the plant
roots
100
Thin and often shiny protective layer of a leaf
cuticle
100
These angiosperms have a fibrous root system
monocot
100
Another name for growth rings in trees
annual rings
200
These angiosperms have vascular bundles evenly distributed throughout their stems
monocots
200
A thick main root that grows straight down vertically in which smaller rootlets grow out.
taproot
200
moves water into the leaf
xylem
200
These angiosperms have ringed vascular bundles
dicot
200
This organ is responsible for processing sunlight through photosynthesis
leaves
300
Vascular tissue that contains xylem and phloem
veins
300
Layer of living cells that produce bark
cork cambium
300
moves sugar out of the leaf
phloem
300
These angiosperms have net-like veins
dicot
300
This prevents moisture loss and protects the delicate vascular tissue of woody plants
bark
400
The outer layer of bark is composed of dead cells referred to as this
cork
400
These stems are softer and more flexible than woody stems
herbaceous stems
400
an opening for the exchange of gases
stoma/stomata
400
A cross section of a lily stem shows scattered vascular bundles evenly distributed, what time of angiosperm are lilies?
monocot
400
Cork cambium constantly divides using this cell dividing process
mitosis
500
The fluctuation of cell growth by the cork cambium causes the formation of these in the inner bark layers
rings
500
stems have these structures that branch out/ produce leaves and flowers
nodes
500
Layer of tissue in which most photosynthesis takes place
palisade layer
500
based on the number of petals, this belongs to this group of angiosperms 
dicot
500
The pressure exerted by the cell’s fluid content against the cell wall.
turgor pressure
