Nutrients -Essential for optimal plant conditions |
Process of Plant Growth - Photosynthesis -Respiration -Absorption -Transpiration -Translocation -Reproduction |
|
|
Photosynthesis - The where plants use carbon dioxide, water and light to create sugar and oxygen. |
Respiration - The process where plant leaves, stems, and roots take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide. This is the opposite of Photosynthesis. |
|
|
Transpiration - The process where plants lose water due to evaporation. |
Absorption -The process where plants take in water and air through their roots. |
|
|
Translocation - The process of moving food and nutrients between two plants. |
Reproduction - The process that produces more offspring. |
|
|
Plant Cells - A Basic unit of growth - A nucleus contained in plasma membrane. |
Stages of Plant Growth -Juvenile -Reproductive -Dormant |
|
|
Parts of a Plant Cell Nucleus- source of genetic and hereditary make-up Protoplasm- the living matter of the cell Plasma Membrane- surrounds the protoplasm allows for gases and nutrients to pass in and out of the cell. |
Plant tissue - A group of cells with similar function/origin. |
|
|
Simple Tissues The Epidermal- One-cell thick. the outer layer -Sclerenchyma- have thicker cell walls. |
Tissue origin and Function -Meristematic- near tips of the stem or roots where enlargement and cell division occurs. - Vascular cambrium- Increases growth in the diameter of the stem. |
|
|
Other Tissues Collenchyma- have thick, strong cell walls that support plant structures. |
Phases of the asexual cycle -Vegetative -Reproductive or Flowering |
|
|
Light -Photoperidism- the plant's response to light regarding their reproduction cycles. -Needed for photosynthesis. -Lack of light causes long spindly stems -Too much sun will dry plants out. |
Moisture -Needed for plant tissues and to carry nutrients -Lack of water causes wilting -Too much water causes small root systems. |
|
|
Temperature -All plants are effected differently by this. -Temperatures too high or too low can have extreme effects. |
Combining growth factors. - Ideal qualities will result in optimum growth. - Unsuitable conditions/ environments will cause diseases to be more severe. |
