Biology

QuestionAnswer
Name the 3 main types of plant cells. -Parenchyma Cells -Collenchyma Cells -Sclerenchyma Cells
Parenchyma cell function and an example of where these cells are found. Functions: -Storage -Photosynthesis -Gas exchange -Protection -Tissue repair and replacement Example: found in potatoes
Collenchyma cell functions and an example of where these cells are found. Functions: -Support and surrounding tissues -Provides flexibility for plant -Tissue repair and replacement Example: found in celery
Schlerenchyma cell functions and an example of where these cells are found. Functions: -Support -Transport minerals
Name the 4 main types of plant tissues. 1. Meristematic Tissue 2. Dermal Tissue 3. Vascular Tissue 4. Ground Tissue
Describe meristemic tissues. Has gions of rapidly diving cells/ -Apical meristems (In the tips of roots and stems; increase in length -Intercalary meristems- (Found it the stem or leaf; increase in length) -Lateral meristems (Found in roots and stems; increase in diameter)
Describe dermal tissues. -They layer of cells that makes up the outer cover covering on a plant is the epidermal cells can create a fatty substance that forms the cuticle -The cuticle helps reduce water loss and prevent bacteria from entering the plant
Describe vascular tissues. -Contains Xylem and Phloem Xylem contains vessel elements and tracheids
Describe ground tissues. -consist of parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma cells -functoins include photosynthesis, storage, and support -most common tissue found in plants
Describe root functions. -first structure to grow out of the seed -take in water and dissolved minerals -anchor the plant
List the layers of the root from the outside inward. Root cap Cortex Endodermis Pericycle
Describe the functions of stems. -provides support -transport water and dissolved substances -stores food and water -have vascular bundles
Explain herbaceous and woody stems. herbaceous stems: -soft, flexible green stems (grass) Woody: -tough, cork-like tissues (trees)
Describe the functions of leaves -main function is photosynthesis -flat part of a leaf is called a blade -blade is attached to a petiole -water evaporates from the leaf by transpiration
Name the 4 plant hormones. 1. Auxin 2. Gibberellins 3. Ethylene 4. Cytokinins
Describe auxins and how they affect a plant. -Stimulates the length of cells -Affects the rate of growth in roots, stems, and leaves -Causes fruits to drop from plants when ripe, causes apical dominants which makes the plants grow mostly upward.
Describe gibberellins and how they affect a plant. -Causes cell elongation, stimulates cell division, and affects seed growth -applying gibberellins to a plant can cause an increase in height
Describe ethylene and how they affect a plant. -affects the ripening of fruits -Fruits are softer and sweeter than unripe fruits -The only known gaseous hormone -Found in plant tissues such as ripening fruits, dying leaves, and flowers
Describe cytokinins and how they affect a plant. -promote cell division by stimulating the production of the protein needed for mitosis and cytokinesis -Produced in rapidly dividing cells -When used in combination with auxins, produces rapid growth of the plant
Describe a nastic response and give 2 examples. -A response of a plant that causes movement independent of the direction of the stimulus -is not a growth response, it is reversible,& can be repeated Ex: Sunflowers following the sun; closing of a Venus flytrap's leaves
Describe tropic response. -a tropism is a plant's growth response to an eternal sitmulus
Name and describe three tropisms. Phototropism- the plant reacts to light caused by an unequal amount of auxin Gravitropism- response to gravity; roots grow with gravity so they have a postitive -Thigmotropism- response to a chemical stimuli; a vining plant will wrap around a post
In stems, how are vascular tissues arranged for monocots and dicots? Monocots: vascular bundles are scattered throughout the cell Dicots:vascular bundles are near the edge of the stem
In roots, how are vascular tissues arranged for monocots and dicots? Monocots:vascular tissue forms rings around the center Diocots:Shaped like a star

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.
