ANSWER
Foliage leaves
ANSWER
The Plant Body Plan
ANSWER vascular tissue system: The vascular tissue system carries out long-distance
transport of materials between the root and shoot systems.
Flower
ANSWER In an angiosperm, a specialized shoot with up to four sets of modified leaves,
bearing structures that function in sexual reproduction.
Apical bud
ANSWER A bud at the tip of a plant stem; also called a terminal bud.
Node
ANSWER A point along the stem of a plant at which leaves are attached.
Internode
ANSWER A segment of a plant stem between the points where leaves are attached.
Vegetative shoot
ANSWER Vegetative growth—production of nonreproductive leaves, stems, and roots
, Leaf
ANSWER The main photosynthetic organ of vascular plants.
- Blade: The flattened portion of a typical leaf.
- Petiole:
Axillary bud
ANSWER - The stalk of a leaf, which joins the leaf to a node of the stem.
Stem
ANSWER A vascular plant organ consisting of an alternating system of nodes and internodes
that support the leaves and reproductive structures.
Taproot
ANSWER - A main vertical root that develops from an embryonic root and gives rise to lateral
(branch) roots.
Lateral branch roots
ANSWER - Root: A root is an organ that anchors a vascular plant in the soil, absorbs minerals
and water, and often stores carbohydrates.
- A main vertical root that develops from an embryonic root and gives rise to lateral (branch)
roots.
Basic Cell Types
ANSWER 1. Parenchyma
2. Collenchyma
3. Sclerenchyma
