characteristics of a plant cell
|
multicellular eukaryotes that have cell walls made of celloous. they develope from multicellular embroyos and carry out photosyntheses using the green pigments chlorphyll 'a' and 'b'
|
|
what are the two types of vascular tissues
|
xylem carries water
phloem carries nutriemts and carbs |
|
what do plants require to carry out photosynthesis
|
sunlight
|
|
what is the function of roots
|
roots anchor a plant in the ground and absorb water and dissolved nutrients from the soil
|
|
what are thet two types of roots
|
tap roots are long and thick (carrot)
fibrous roots branch out and each is no longer than the other (flower) |

produce leaves branches and flowers
hlod leaves up to the sunlight transport substances between roots and leaves |
|
what are the functiosn of leaves
|
absorbing light and carritong out photothinsis
|
|
need water to reproduce lack vasculer tissues draw up water by osmosis
