Sites of rapid cell division in the shoot tips, root tips, and cambium are called
Meristems located at the end of the shoots are called , or meristems.
The tendency for terminal buds to inhibit the growth of lateral buds is called .
The "food factories" of trees are the .
The process of combines carbon dioxide and water in a reaction driven by light to produce sugars. is also a product of this reaction.
The green color of leaves is created by the presence of , which is necessary for photosynthesis to take place.
is the loss of water vapor from the leaves.
The opening and closing of allow for gas exchange, and transpiration is controlled by the .
Water and dissolved essential minerals are transported within the tree in the . conducts carbohydrates.
The is a layer of meristematic cells located between the phloem and the xylem.
The is formed when trunk tissue grows around branch tissues. As the branch and trunk tissues expand against each other in the branch union, the is formed.
protects the branches and trunk of a tree from mechanical injury and desiccation.
Name five functions of the root system. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Water enters young roots or mycorrhizal roots, in part, by a process called .
The orientation of growth in response to an external stimulus is called . Two examples are and .
CODIT stands for .
Trees with upright growth and a strong, central leader are said to exhibit growth. More rounded trees, which are often broader than they are tall, have growth habits.
Roots and fungi form , which are a symbiotic relationship, aiding in the uptake of water and minerals.
The process by which chemical energy, stored as sugar and starch, is released is called .
Trees that lose their leaves in the autumn are called . Trees that maintain their leaves for more than one year are called .
When cutting through a tree with a chain saw or drilling into a tree, you would pass through (in order);
bark, cambium, phloem, xylem
bark, phloem, cambium, xylem
bark, cambium, xylem, phloem
bark, xylem, phloem, cambium
If the terminal bud is removed in pruning;
growth may be stimulated in lateral buds
flowering is stimulated to enhance fruit production
the branch will die back
all of the above
The growth rings of many trees;
are visible because of the rapid growth rate of earlywood relative to latewood
can be counted to approximate a tree's age
can give information about growing conditions in previous years
Which layer of cells is responsible for outward trunk growth and increased girth of a tree?
cambium
pith
epidermis
cortex
Mycorrhizae are;
collar-rot fungi
elongated underground stems producing sucker sprouts
a symbiotic relationship between fungi and roots
cells in which photosynthesis takes place
