100
Growth rings are a result of this type of tissue
What is xylem
100
The main function of leaf.
What is photosynthesis
100
In a lab you scraped an onion leaf to reveal these structures (2)
What is guard cells, stomata
200
The tissue responsible for making up the majority of the plant. Conducts water and minerals up from the roots.
What is the xylem
200
Protects the apical meristem and produces a slime.
What is root cap
200
What forms when a leaf is attached to form a lateral shoot.
What is a bud
200
Joins the stem and the leaf.
What is petiole
200
In a lab you looked a parsnip, name the tissues in the center of the cross section. (2)
What is xylem and phloem
300
The tissue that is made of sieve cells and conducts minerals and nutrients throughout the plant?
What is the phloem
300
Increase surface area for absorption.
What is root hairs.
300
Any place in a plant that uses or stores sugar.
What is Sink
300
Opening in the epidermis that allows water and gas control
What is stomata
300
On a stem the rings were wider durng this season.
What is spring
400
The type of tissue that is made up of long thin sclerenchyma cells with pits. It is commonin conifers and considered a more primitive cell. Its pits allow water movement.
What is the Tracheids.
400
Ground tissue made up of parenchyma cells.
What is cortex
400
these two tissues make up the rings in a tree
What is spring wood and summer wood
400
Layer directly under the epidermis where photosynthesis takes place.
What isp palisade layer
400
This tissue forms new bands of xylem.
What is cambium
500
Type of tissue that allows the stem to increase in diameter.
What is lateral meristem?
500
Name three functions of a root.
What is 1. anchor
2. absorb water and nutrients
3. store carbohydrates or water
500
These two properties are responsible for moving water up a stem.
What is cohesion and adhesion. ( transpiration)
500
Layer in the leaf that allows gases to move in and out.
What is spongy mesophyll
500
The oldest tissue in a stem is closest to this type of tissue. ( storage but not parenchyma cells)
