Chapter 25Plant Structure and Function
![Page 2: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
I. TissuesA. Dermal Tissue• Covers the outside of a
plant’s body as protection• Forms a “skin” called
the epidermis in nonwoody plant parts• A waxy cuticle, which
prevents water loss, coats the epidermis of the stems and leaves

• Extensions on the epidermal cells on root tips help increase water absorption• Forms layers of dead
cells called cork on woody stems and roots

B. Ground Tissue• Makes up most of the inside
of most plants• Surrounds and supports
vascular tissue• Specialize in photosynthesis
in leaves, as they are packed with chloroplasts• Store water, sugar, and
starch in stems and roots

C. Vascular Tissue1. Xylem• Thick-walled cells that conduct water and
mineral nutrients from a plants roots through its stems to its leaves•Must lose their cell membrane, nucleus, and
cytoplasm before they can conduct water- All that is left is the cell wall
![Page 7: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
a. Tracheid• Narrow, elongated,
and tapered at each end• Water flows through
pits, or thin areas in between neighboring cell walls
![Page 8: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
b. Vessels• Wider• Larger perforations
in their ends that allow water to move more quickly
![Page 9: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
![Page 10: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2. Phloem• Conduct sugars and other nutrients
throughout a plants body through connecting cells that form sieve tubes• Cells either lack organelles or have modified
organelles
![Page 11: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Pores in the walls between neighboring sieve-tube cells connect the cytoplasms and allow substances to pass freely from cell to cell• Companion cells lie next to
the sieve-tube cells and carry out cellular respiration, protein synthesis, and other metabolic function for the sieve-tube cells
![Page 12: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
II. Roots• Absorb water and mineral nutrients• Store organic nutrients such as sugar and
starch• Dicots, such as carrots and radishes, have a
large central root from which much smaller roots branch; a taproot system• Monocots, such as grasses, have a highly
branched, fibrous root system
![Page 13: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Roots contain a central core of vascular tissue that is surrounded by ground tissue, called the cortex
• A mass of cells called the root cap covers and protects the actively growing root tip
![Page 14: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
III. Stems• House vascular tissue which transports
substances between the roots and the leaves• Leaves are attached to a stem at points called
nodes• The space between two nodes is called an
internode
![Page 15: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
A. Nonwoody Stems• Also called herbaceous plants• Xylem and phloem tissue arranged in vascular
bundles which are surrounded by ground tissue• Two types of ground tissue
1. Cortex – outside tissue2. Pith – center of the stem
![Page 16: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
B. Woody Stems• Cork covers woody stems and protects them
from physical damage and helps prevent water loss• Cork and phloem tissue make up bark• Heartwood at the center of the stem contains
xylem that no longer conducts water• Sapwood, (in between heartwood and bark)
contains xylem that can conduct water
![Page 17: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
IV. Leaves• Primary
photosynthetic organs of plants• Consist of a flat
blade that is attached to the stem by a stalk called the petiole
![Page 19: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• A leaf may be divided into two or more leaflets and is called a compound leaf- Leaflets reduce the surface area of a leaf blade• An undivided blade is called a simple leaf
![Page 20: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Xylem and phloem are found in the veins of a leaf
• Veins are extensions of vascular bundles that run from the tips of roots to the edges of leaves
• The ground tissue in leaves is called mesophyll• Mesophyll is packed with chloroplasts which
makes the leaves look green
![Page 21: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
![Page 22: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
V. Movement of WaterStep 1•When the pores of a leaf, the stomata, are
open, water vapor diffused out of a leaf• This loss of water vapor is called transpiration•More than 90 percent of the water taken in
by the roots is ultimately lost through transpiration
![Page 23: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
![Page 24: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Step 2• The cohesion of water molecules causes water
molecules that are being lost by a plant to pull up on the water molecules still in the xylem that extends from the roots to the edges of leaves
![Page 25: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Step 3• Roots take in water from the soil by osmosis
and replaces water displaced by cohesion through the xylem caused by transpiration
![Page 26: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
A. Guard Cells and Transpiration• Stoma are surrounded by a pair of guard cells• Each guard cell swells in length as they take in
water• As guard cells take in water, they bend away
from each other, opening the stoma and allowing transpiration to proceed
![Page 27: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• When water leaves the guard cells, they shorten and close the stoma, stopping transpiration and further water loss
• Homeostasis in action
![Page 28: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
VI. Movement of Organic Compounds• Organic compounds are provided by what
botanists call a source• Organic compounds are delivered to what
botanists call a sink• Sugar from a source enters phloem cells by
active transport
![Page 29: Chapter 25 Plant Structure and Function. I. Tissues A. Dermal Tissue Covers the outside of a plant’s body as protection Forms a “skin” called the epidermis](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd96e7/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Step 2• When the sugar concentration in the phloem
increases, water enters the cells by osmosisStep 3• Water pressure increases inside the cell and
pushes sugar outStep 4• Sugar moves to the sink through active
transport
