CRPS-B5 Chapter 2
prokaryotic cells - answer NO ORGANELLES is bacteria
eukaryotic cells - answer contain a nucleus and other organelles that are bound by
membranes
cellulose - answer polysaccharide consisting of glucose monomers that reinforces plant-
cell walls
lignin - answer substance in vascular plants that makes cell walls rigid
mitosis - answer part of eukaryotic cell division during which the cell nucleus divides
central vacuole - answer liquid with dissolved storage substances; sugars, starches,
and salts
apical meristem - answer plant tissue found in the tips of roots and in the buds of shoots
that supplies cells for the plant to grow in height (primary growth)
node - answerthe point on the stem where leaves develop
internode - answerthe region between a pair of adjacent nodes
photoperiod - answerthe environmental stimulus a plant uses to detect the time of year
and the relative lengths of day and night
auxin - answera plant hormone that speeds up the rate of growth of plant cells of the
stem
lateral meristems - answerincrease in stem girth
vascular cambium - answeris the main growth layer in the stems and roots of many
plants
bark cambium - answerthe outermost layers of stems and roots of woody plants
cotelydon - answeran embryonic leaf in seed-bearing plants, one or more of which are
the first leaves to appear from a germinating seed
monocots - answerone part to seed, fibrous roots, parallel venation, simple anatomy,
only primary growth (original anatomy does not change), flower parts in 2's or 3's
