Hierarchy of Plant Life Organs - many groups of tissues working together - Examples: root, stem, leaf - join with other organs to form... Hierarchy of Plant Life Organ Systems - _____________________ ______________________ - Examples: root system & shoot system Hierarchy of Plant Life Organ Systems - group of organs that work together to perform a specific function - Examples: root system & shoot system Focus on Plant Tissues Four types: 1. ___________= outermost single layer of cells - usually covered in thick waxy layer for ___________________ - Ex. guard cells on underside of leaf Focus on Plant Tissues Four types: 1. Dermal tissue= outermost single layer of cells - usually covered in thick waxy layer for protection against water loss - Ex. guard cells on underside of leaf Focus on Plant Tissues Four Types: 2. Vascular tissue- forms transport system that moves water and nutrients throughout plant - Ex. ______ and ______ are channels through which water and nutrients move Focus on Plant Tissues Four Types: 2. Vascular tissue- forms transport system that moves water and nutrients throughout plant - Ex. xylem and phloem are channels through which water and nutrients move Focus on Plant Tissues Four Types: 3. _____________- lies between vascular and dermal tissue - characterized by ___________ - Ex.: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma Focus on Plant Tissues Four Types: 3. Ground tissue- lies between vascular and dermal tissue - characterized by thin walls and large central vacuoles - Ex.: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma Focus on Plant Tissues Four Types: 4. Meristematic tissue- regions of plant where _____________ _________________________ - Ex. apical meristems, axillary buds, lateral meristems, and intercalary meristems Focus on Plant Tissues Four Types: 4. Meristematic tissue- regions of plant where growth through cell division takes place - Ex. apical meristems, axillary buds, lateral meristems, and intercalary meristems
