High plant function

QuestionAnswer
three types of nonmeristematic tissues parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma
form most of the ground tissues, such as mesophyll of leaves or cortex/pith of stems/roots. parenchyma cells
type of parenchyma that facilitate transport Phloem
outer tissue made up of parenchyma epidermis
metabolicly active tissue that also functions in storage parenchyma
least specialized cell type parenchyma
Flexible support cells, cylinder or rod shaped collenchyma
have unevenly thick cell walls collenchyma
two cells types that are alive when functional (nonmeristematic) parenchyma and collenchyma
supporting elements with thick secondary walls made of cullulose and lignin sclerenchyma cells
dead when functional (nonmeristematic) sclerenchyma
much more rigid cell type that can't expand with the growing plants. sclerenchyma
make up vessel elements and tracheids in xylem sclerenchyma
broad classification of cells that can divide mitotically meristems
found on the tips of young shoots and roots, starting cell type apical meristem
three different types of meristems protoderm, procambium, ground meristem
produces the outer epidermis to stems and roots protoderm
procambium vascular tissues in stems and roots
ground meristem produces ground tissues of stems and roots
responsible for primary growth of plant (height, length) meristematic tissue
responsible for secondary growth of plant (width, girth) lateral meristems
two types of lateral meristems vascular cambium and cork cambium
thick layers of tissue that increase girth and grow hard over time, becoming wood. vascular cambium
thick covering for large stems and roots, replaces epidermis. cork cambium
creates cork cells and secondary cortex cells cork cambium
in stems, _____ is made up of cork and cork cambium. periderm
periderm and secondary phloem make up this bark
three types of nonmeristematic tissues dermal tissue, vascular, ground
vascular cambium between xylem and phloem fascicular cambium
transports food to non photosynthetic parts of the plant Phloem
cells that make up phloem tubes and allowed for unimpeded movement from one cell to the next seive-tube members.
help maintain cell metabolism for seive-tube members. companion cells
process in which sugars and water are moved via active transport into sieve members translocation
moves water through the plant from the roots to the shoots xylem
process by which water is moved upwards by evaporation of water on the leaves transpiration
long thin cells with tapered ends, hardened with lignen tracheids
edge of a leaf is called lamina

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
