Study Set Content:
gives rise to stelecentral cylinder of vascular tissues where xylem and phloem develops
Procambium
increase the girth of the roots and stems
Lateral meristem
Secondary growth of a plant
Increase in girth
an area of cell division on the side of a plant
Lateral meristems
often referred simply as the cambium
Vascular cambium
Function primarily in support and conduction, forms a thin continuous cylinder within the stems and roots, and located in the wood and bark of woody plants.
Vascular cambium
extends through the length of the roots
Vascular cambium
Individual remaining cells of the cambium
Initials
sister cells of initials, differentiated, non meristematic
Derivatives
A thin cylinder or irregular arrangement of meristematic cells that runs the length of roots and stems of woody plants, lies outside the vascular cambium, just inside the outer bark which it produces.
Cork Cambium
The tissues laid down by cork cambium and vascular cambium are called
Secondary tissues
They are called secondary tissues because?
They are produce after the primary tissues have matured
Grasses don't have a vascular cambium and a cork cambium, they have these instead to develop their length
Intercalary meristems
Plant cell that is unspecialized, may contain chlorophyll, thin-walled, and loosely packed
Parenchyma tissue
What are the shape of parenchyma cells at first
Spherical
What is the shape of parenchyma cells when pushup to one another
Flattened
How many sides are there in a parenchyma tissue
14 sides
Function of parenchyma cells
Photosynthesis, Storage, and Secretion
Materials stored
Starch grains, Oil droplets, Water, and Salts
extensive connected air spaces
Aerenchyma
