Angiosperms
flowering plants that form a protected seed inside an ovary
flowers are structures specialized for
reproduction
_____is a mature ovary
A fruit
as seed develop from ovules after fertilization the wall of the ovary is thickened to form -------
fruit
fruits protect _______and aid in their dispersal
dormant seeds
Stages of plants 3 major (DNA)
haploid, diploid, triploid
Mitotic division of the diploid zygote produces one multi-cellular body called_________
a sporophyte
Meiosis in a mature sporophyte produces
spores
Mitotic division of a plant spore produces a new multi-cellular
Gametophyte
gametophytes produce ____
gametes
Agriculture is based almost entirely on
angiosperms
plants diversity is a _______ resource
nonrenewable
Plants have 3 basic organs called
Roots, shoots, leaves
continuous throughout the whole plant and is involved in the transport of materials between roots and shoots
vascular system
conveys  H2O and dissolved minerals upward from the roots into the shoots
xylem
transports food made in mature leaves to the roots and to non-photosynthetic portions of the shoot system
phloem
Xylem is made of which are
tracheids and vessel elements
xylem cells are ___ and _ at functional maturity
elongated cells that are dead at maturity
Tracheids are
tapered
H₂O moves from cell to cell
have secondary walls with lignin
Vessel elements
(pipes)           
Aligned end to end
Perforated ends
Phloem is made of ____ that form -
sieve-tube members
chains of cells to move sucrose, organic compounds and some mineral ions.
Sieve tube members are _____ at functional maturity though they lack ----
alive at
nucleuses, vacuoles and ribosomes
sieve tube member have ____ that provide nutrients
companion cells
Ground tissue is divided into ____ internal, and _______, external, to the vascular tissue
pith,
cortex
also functions for photosynthesis
Ground tissue
generate cells for new organs throughout the lifetime of a plant
meristem
most plants demonstrate ________ because it has perpetually embryonic tissue called ______ in regions of growth.
indeterminate growth
meristems
Primary Growth
Apical meristem extend roots and shoots by
giving rise to a primary pland body
covers the root tip, secretes lubricant that
allow for better penetration of the soil
root cap
cell division takes place as new cells are
formed
zone of cell division
in roots cells divid more slowly in the
quiescent center
primary meristems (3)
protostem
pro cambium
ground meristems
the cells grow longer causing the roots to increase in depth
zone of elongation
cells become functionally mature
zone of maturation
secondary meristems
lateral meristems add girth by producing secondary vascular tissues
The_____ acts as a meristem for
production of secondary xylem accumulates making wood
vascular cambium
Wood consist mainly of
trachids, vessel element fiber
These dead cells have thick lignified walls that give wood its hardness and strength
xylem trachids
The _____________acts as a meristem for tough thick covering (bark) for stem and roots that replaces the epidermis
cork cambium
bark refers to
external to the vasuclar cambium including
scondary phloem, cork cambium, and cork.
Apical meristem of stem
Protoderm
Procambium
Ground Meristem
Primary tissues
epidermal
vascular
ground
Lateral Meristem
Vascular Cambium
Cork Cambium
Secondary tissues
Secondary Phloem
Secondary Xylem
Cork
