Botany Lecture

The document discusses different types of plant meristems and ground tissues. It describes the root apical meristem as embryonic, undifferentiated, and totipotent. It also mentions the root cap, procambium, and protoderm found in root tips. Turning to ground tissues, it lists the main types as parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma and provides some key details about each type.

Root apical meristem

Meristem

Embryonic, undifferentied

Totepotent

Actively dividing

Histolgical ls root tip

Root cap

Procambium – primitive/origin= pro of vascular tissues, gives rise to primary xylem and phloem, found
inside the bundle

Protoderm= gives rise to dermal tisse

Corn Quiesent center or zone – non-actively dividing, purpose to recovery/ repair damaged tissues

Dicot – circular vb

Monocot – scatters vb

Interfascicular parenchyma/cambium- located bet two succeeding vb, it prvodes secondary meristem to
develop the secondary xylem and phloem (only happens when plant develop into a tree)

dy-why not seen in

- when does xylem grow

Fascicular - procambrium

and interfacicular –
Lateral meristem – diameter and girth

Pine tree – capable of secondary growth brought by LM

Vascular cambium- inside, xylem

Cork cambium –, aka phellogen located outside. Phloem and bark(only found in tree-forming plants,
when not only procambium)

Cork-phellem

Phelloderm –

PRM – perpendicular, right angle

Apical cell – tip most structure in shoot tip, meristematic and only differentiated whne mature in gilid

Dracena – monocot of fam asparagaceae

- Graminea/ poace fam of grassesvlike poa and bombusa and Eleusine oriza cea

In monot and grass allies

Intercalary meristem – kanila lang only in monocot stem and in grass family , darkenedbetween nodes,
allows fast regeneration and repair of the damaged structure
Lesson 4.2

Ground tissues

Types: Parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma

Parrenchyma – continuous masses, magkakasama, vertical in vascular tissues and horizontal in sec

Thin and only primary cell wall

-eveolve first

Tyloses -when too much block water lead to death

Active diffusion and osmosis in bryophyte that doesn’t have other tissues other than parenchyma

Pteridophyta and conifer/Gymnospermae – first yung collen scleren

Aerenchyma – has air structure for boutancy

Wide variety of function

Store substances- plastids, a,yloplasts and elaioplast

Chlorenchyma – chloren green

Collenchyma – mas makapal cell wall sa paren

Edges, midleaf and veneations of leaf has more collen

Adaxial – shiny up

Abaxial – ilalim

Midrib -

Angular, lamellar, lacunar


Sclerenchyma

-dead at maturity but still provides function which is supports and hardens

- cell lumen deteriorates as time

- only type which has secondary cell walss

- lignin – a type of protein in plants that creates this very strong support to cells

Two types of

fibers = thread, long

usually run in stem, some in leaves and roots

sclereid – additional strentgth to paets of plants that are relatively soft, seeds, fruits or specialized parts

Types of sclereids
Brachyslecrieds -seed coats and seeds
- Stone cells, tough and sandy

Astrosclereid – nymphaea, plants with aerenchyma


For additional structural support
- Sometimes look like stars
- Additional function against herbivory

Macrosclereids

Osteorsclereids, thicker but shorter

both in beans
