Parts of a Vascular Plant

Roots Main function: –Absorb water & nutrients Transport them to the above ground plant –Anchor the plant in the ground –Some store energy as carbohydrates.

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Page Number Topic Date 20 - 23 Stems and Roots April 19 EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots?

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Two important functions Carries substances between roots and leaves Supports plant so leaves are exposed to the sun EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots?

Structure of a Stem Two types of stems Herbaceous – soft and flexible Woody-hard and rigid Both types contain phloem and xylem

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Woody Stems EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Bark - added layer of protection Heartwood – inner layers for additional support

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Layers of a Woody Stem Bark Phloem Cambium -cells that produce new phloem and xylem Active xylem Heartwood- inactive xylem Pith – center of stem, stores food and water in young trees EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots?

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Annual Rings Represent one year in a tree’s growth Made of xylem Light rings grow in spring Dark rings grow in summer Two rings together make one year’s growth EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots?

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Anchor plants Absorb water and nutrients EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots?

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Types of Roots EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? 2 types Taproot – long thick root with thin roots branching off – carrot, radish, dandelion, cactus Fibrous- several main roots that branch repeatedly – lawn, corn, trees

EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots? Structure of Root Root cap – contains dead cells, protects root from injury Dividing cells – cause root to lengthen Root hairs – grow out of root surface – increases the surface area of the roots Cambium Vascular tissue in center EQ: How do I describe the function of the stems and roots?
