Biology

What is the SHOOT system?

•  The OUTTAKE of cells bringing out waste and other particles

• The INTAKE of cells bringing in nutrients into the cell

• Everything above ground

• Everything below ground

What is the ROOT system?

• Everything below ground

• Everything Above Ground

What is the Dermal Tissue?

• Outside Layer

• Vascular

• Ground

What is the vascular tisse

• Inside

• Outside

• Underneath

• Transportation of nutrient's and water

What is the waxy cuticle

• Always open 

  Carrier Proteins- Opening catches it the closes it in 

• When the cell becomes larger and its volume increases

• Leaf collection of tissues working together to carry out photosynthesis. Plant cells have organelles called chloroplasts which contain a green pigment chlorophyll. (Anything green in plants can do photosynthesis) 

•  helps protect the plant and prevent water loss. Dermal tissue in the roots is responsible for uptake of water and minerals. For trees/woody plants it is replaced by cork and bark

What is Epidermis?

• a thin layer on the outside of the cell that covers the whole plant 

  It the main function is to FACILITATE GAS EXCHANGE

• The purpose of photosynthesis is to trap the sun's energy and store its chemical potential energy in the bonds of sugar.

• This is found below the epidermis and makes up the majority of the plant. Ground tissue in the leaves of a plant is called mesophyll and is involved in photosynthesis. 

• Cellular respiration is a set of reactions where the bonds of sugar molecules are broken and the chemical potential is released.

What is the palisade?

• Transport of water

• Main site of photosynthesis (TIGHT)

• Gas exchange and allows gas to move quickly (LOOSE)

• Transport of nutrients/glucose
