Term
Phytomere
Definition
Consists of a node w its attached leaf, the internode below the leaf, and the bud at the base of the internode. Repeated units under apical meristem.
Term
Node
Definition
has a leaf attached.
Term
Internode
Definition
below leaf, bud at base.
Term
Leaf primordial
Definition
develops into leaves
Term
Bud primordial
Definition
develops into lateral shoots
Term
axillary bud
Definition
lies at the junction of the stem and the petiole of the plant.
Term
pith rays
Definition
interfasicular regions are wide, hence the procambial strands and vascular bundles form a system of discrete strands around the pith.
Term
herbaceous
Definition
non woody, no secondary growth.
Term
woody
Definition
secondary growth
Term
What are the functions of stems?
Definition
Support/conduction puts leaves closer to light. Transport nutrients down to roots up- water/minerals.
Term
What are the function of tubers?
Definition
store nutrients, roots underneath stems on top.
Term
What are the functions of rhizomes?
Definition
vegetative reproduction, food storage.
Term
Compare and contrast the activities of the SHOOT apical meristem and the root apical meristem.
Definition
rise to stem and leaves, most embryogenisis in flowers, leaf primordial. Stem cells, daughter cells, organization center, founder cells.
Term
Compare and contract the activities of the shoot apical meristem and the ROOT apical meristem.
Definition
Rise to roots, cells in to different directions, division, elongation, maturation, rootcap. 2 dimensional cell production, infrequent cell division.
Term
Compare and contrast the activities of the SHOOT apical meristem and the ROOT apical meristem.
Definition
Protoderm, procambium, ground-epidermis, PVT, ground tissue.
Term
Compare and contrast the structures of the SHOOT apical meristem and the roost apical meristem.
Definition
young leaf node, procambium all around.Protoderm going up (not down like in roots), ground meristem (roots).
Term
Compare and contrast the structures of the shoot apical meristem and the ROOT apical meristem.
Definition
Root cap, root hair. Procambium in center. 3 different zones,(diff, elong, division), quistent center. Protoderm going downward.
Term
Compare primary xylem maturation in STEMS to primary xylem maturation in roots.
Definition
Endoderm leads to protoderm, ground meristem, 3 discrte procambial stems, one mature tracheary element (inward next to pith). Xylem eventually differentiates in other direction. Primary xylem is stretched during elongation of internode and frequently destroyed.
Term
Compare primary xylem maturation in stems to primary xylem maturation in ROOTS.
Definition
Vascular cylinder in center one soild cylinder. Some have piths vascular tissues arise from procambium. Center of vascular cylinder is primary xylem, procambial cells between metaxylem differentiates after protoxylem which occupies the center of the vascular cylinder.
