Tree growth
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Photoperiod | -within temperate regions-growth begins with increased available sunlight |
| Trope (to trun) | -turning either towards light (positive) or turning away from light (negative) |
| Auxins (indoleacwtic acid) | -responsible for phototropisim-produced at branch tips |
| Cytokinin | -delays aging or growing old (sensesence) |
| Gibberellins | -promotes cell division and elongation |
| Abscisic Acid | -growth inhibitor-maintians DORMANCY in bugs |
| Parenchyma cells (cell produced during growth) | -responsible for storage and photosymthesis- make up majority of cells in plants |
| Sclerrenchyma(cell produced during growth) | -short lived cells-thick walls--supports plant |
| Collenchyma(cell produced during growth) | -supports growing areas |
| Epigeous Germination (stage of Growth) | -above ground-cotyledons(seed leaves) |
| Hypogeous Germination (stage of growth | -below ground-cotyledons(seed leaves) remain in the earth |
| Seedling Stage | -system begining to devolop (trunk,roots,branch and leaf) |
| Primary Growth (length) woody stem growth pattern category | -increase in heigh-increase in depth at roots |
| Secondary Growth (width) woody stem growth pattern category | -become meristematic in vascular cambrium layer of cells that covers tree from branh tips to root tips |
| Apical Meristems (ends of trees) initates growth | -layer of cells covered by terminal and lateral bud scales-Bud scales will become active-cabable of cell division(mitosis) |
| indication that primary growth has ceased for the year | Budset (by the end of June) |
| Epidermis (bark) | outer edge of stem |
| Ground tissue | comopund of cortex,ith and pith rays |
| Procambium | develop into cambium-for conduction |
