Resource summary
Plants: Uses, Form, and Function
PLANTS AS A BIORESOURCE
Photosynthsis
50% of the oxygen in the atmosphere is produced by plants
TRANSPORTATION
Passive Transport
Goes along Concentration Gradient
Diffusion
Osmosis
Xylem Transportation
Root Pressure
Positive Pressure
Negative Pressure
Cohesion Tension Model
Transpiration
Cohesion
Adhesion
Active Transport
Goes against concentation gradient
Phloem Transportation
Translocation
Source
Sink
Pressure Flow Model
PLANT BODY
Formed when 2 monosaccharides react e.g A Glucose + A Glucose = Maltose
Sucrose Maltose Lactose
Using water we can 'undo' the glycosidic bond and separate the sugar into 2 monosaccharides (hydrolisis)
Reducing sugars
Sucrose = glucose & fructose ( 1,4 glycosidic bond)
The C1 OH & C4 HO react to form H20 and a C-0-C bond (glycosidic bond)
Called 'condensation reaction'
DICOTS
vascular bundles arranged in stars
palmate or pinnate
presence of wood(secondary growth)
taproot root system
examples of dicots
MONOCOTS
vascular bundles arranged in rings
parallel
parts of 3 or multiples of 3
no presence of wood
fibrous root system
examples of monocots
REPRODUCTION
Sexual Reproduction in Seed Plants
Alternation of Generations
Sexual Reproduction In Seed Plants
Sexual Reproduction In Angiosperms
angiosperm anatomy
sepal
petals
stamen
pistil
polar nuclei
pollen grain
Sexual Reproduction in Gymnosperms
Asexual Reproduction
Vegetative Prognation
Artificial Prognation
PLANT ORGANS
Anatomy of roots
Root Caps
Cortex
Endodermis
Casparian Strip
Taproot
Fibrous Roots
Stems
Anatomy of leaves
Cuticle
Mesophyll
Palisade Mesophyll
Spongy Mesophyll
SUCCESSION
Primary Successioon
establishment of a community in an area after an ecological disturbance has left exposed rock without topsoil
Volcanic Eruptions
Retreating Glaciers
Secondary Succession
recolonization of an area after an ecological the disturbance which left the topsoil intact
Forest fires
Floods
Pioneer Species
Pioneer species is where species of organsims are the first to colonize barren land
bacteria,
Algae
Lichen
RESPONSES TO EXTERNAL STIMULI
Nastic response
plant movement in response to a stimulus,however,it is not associated with the direction of the stimulus
flower petals open during the day and close at night to conserve heat
Tropism
Negative Tropism
Types
PLANT HORMONES
Stimulatory Hormones
Cytokinins
Gibberellins
Auxins
Inhibitory Hormones
Ethylene
Abscisic Acid
PLANT CELLS
Sclerenchyma Cells
very thick secondary wall with lignin
they die after full development of cell and provide support for mature plants
Parenchyma Cells
Spherical with flattened cell walls and and tightly packed cells
leaves and cells have chloroplasts, and has large cenral vacuoles
Collenchyma Cells
long strings thta are pulled from celery stock
elongated, long strands or cylinders that provide support for surrounding cells
thick cell walls, and as the plant grows, the thinner cell wallsexpand making them flexible
PLANT TISSUES
Meristematic
embryonic tissues that can develop into specialized plant cells
Dermal
Outer covering of a plant
epidermis
guard cells
stoma
trichomes
root hairs
Ground
Vascular
xylem
transports water and minerals from roots to leaves
dead cells
phloem
transports nutrients(sugars) to areas needed for growth, metabolism and storage
living cells
