Plant Anatomy Quick Quiz Read the following 6 questions and determine if it is true or false. You will have 5 minutes to read and determine your answer. You may use your notes but not your neighbor for help.

Plant organs include leaves, xylem, phloem, and roots. Ground tissue functions in metabolism and storage. Cuticles are secreted by vascular tissue to help plants retain water. Sclerenchyma cells contain lignin which provides high levels of structural support. Parenchyma cells in the leaves are also called mesophyll cells where photosynthesis occurs. Dermal tissue on roots can produce trichomes for protection against herbivores

Plant organs include leaves, xylem, phloem, and roots. False Plant organs include leaves, stems, and roots. Xylem and phloem are tissues.
