|
tissues that conduct water or food are called conducting tissues or
|
vascular tissues
|
|
this is type of sclerenchyma cells. they are often round and are called stone cells.

|
intercalary meristem
|
|
name the two vascular tissue in plants
|
xylem and phloem
|
|
this type of cells have thin cell walls, are not specialized, and can change to a different cell type when needed
|
parenchyma
|
|
this type of cell secrete substances from the inside
|
secretory cells
|
|
these cells are dead at maturity and have very thick cell wall. they provide strength and support to plants
|
sclerenchyma cells
|
|
name the two types of cells that are responsible for the transport of food in plants.
|
seive tube element, companion cells
|
|
this term is used to describe cells that are dividing
|
meristematic
|
|
these elongated cells are dead at maturity. they have very thick cell walls. the cells are connected to form long tubes that transport most of the water and minerals in plants
|
vessel element

|
where are the epidermal cells located
|
surface of leaves and small plants
|
|
these flattened cells cover the surface of leaves and stems. they are covered with cuticle on one side of the cell
|
epidermal cells
|
|
this is most common cell type found in plants
|
parenchyma cells
|
|
the 4 types of cells in phloem
|
fibers, parenchyma, seive tube elements, companion cells
|
|
this type of meirstematic tissue exist along the side of rootsand stems and causes thickening of those organs
|
vascular cambium
|
|
this type of meristematic tissue is located at the tip of roots and stems and is responsible for the elaongation of plants
|
apical meristem
|
|
this type of cell replaces the epidermis cells as plants grow older. it has a thick wall that is covered with suberin
|
cork cells
|
|
this tissue conducts food in plants
|
phloem
|
|
this type of meristematic tissue exist along the sides of stems and produces bark
|
cork cambium
|
|
this type of meristematic tissue only exists in roots and is the source of secondary roots and periderm(bark)

xylem
|
|
name a tissue that is composed of more than one type of cell
|
xylem or phloem
|
|
this type of cells have uneven thickness of cell wall. walls are thickened at corners
|
collenchyma
|
|
what is a tissue
|
cells that are grouped together to preform a common function
|
|
list the four types of cells that exist in xylem
|
parenchyma, fibers, vessel elements, tracheids
|
|
these elongated cells have thick walls with pits and have tapered ends. the ends are joined together to form thin long tubes that transport water and minerals in plants
