AP Biology Plant Growth

AP Biology Growth in Animals  Animals grow throughout the whole organism  many regions & tissues at different rates

AP Biology Growth in Plants  Specific regions of growth: meristems  stem cells: perpetually embryonic tissue  regenerate new cells  apical shoot meristem  growth in length  primary growth  apical root meristem  growth in length  primary growth  lateral meristem  growth in girth  secondary growth

AP Biology Apical meristems shootroot

AP Biology Root structure & growth protecting the meristem

AP Biology Shoot growth Young leaf primordium Apical meristem Older leaf primordium Lateral bud primordium Vascular tissue  Apical bud & primary growth of shoot  region of stem growth  axillary buds  “waiting in the wings” protecting the meristem

AP Biology  Woody plants grow in height from tip  primary growth  apical meristem  Woody plants grow in diameter from sides  secondary growth  lateral meristems  vascular cambium  makes 2° phloem & 2° xylem  cork cambium  makes bark Growth in woody plants Primary phloem Primary xylem Secondary phloem Secondary xylem Annual growth layers Lateral meristems Primary xylem Primary phloem Bark Epidermis

AP Biology Secondary growth  Secondary growth  growth in diameter  thickens & strengthens older part of tree  cork cambium makes bark  growing ring around tree  vascular cambium makes xylem & phloem  growing ring around tree

AP Biology Vascular cambium last year’s xylem early late phloem bark  Phloem produced to the outside  Xylem produced to the inside cork cambium vascular cambium xylem Why are early & late growth different?

AP Biology Woody stem cork cambium vascular cambium xylem early late phloem bark How old is this tree? 1 2 3

AP Biology Tree trunk anatomy tree girdling What does girdling do to a tree? Aaaargh! Murderer! Arborcide!

AP Biology Where will the carving be in 50 years?

AP Biology Plant hormones  auxin  gibberellins  abscisic acid  ethylene  and more…

AP Biology Auxin (IAA)  Effects  controls cell division & differentiation  phototropism  growth towards light  asymmetrical distribution of auxin  cells on darker side elongate faster than cells on brighter side  apical dominance

AP Biology Gibberellins  Family of hormones  over 100 different gibberellins identified  Effects  stem elongation  fruit growth  seed germination plump grapes in grocery stores have been treated with gibberellin hormones while on the vine

AP Biology Abscisic acid (ABA)  Effects  slows growth  seed dormancy  high concentrations of abscisic acid  germination only after ABA is inactivated or leeched out  survival value: seed will germinate only under optimal conditions  light, temperature, moisture

AP Biology Ethylene  Hormone gas released by plant cells  Effects  fruit ripening  leaf drop  like in Autumn  apoptosis One bad apple spoils the whole bunch…

AP Biology Fruit ripening  Adaptation  hard, tart fruit protects developing seed from herbivores  ripe, sweet, soft fruit attracts animals to disperse seed  Mechanism  triggers ripening process  breakdown of cell wall  softening  conversion of starch to sugar  sweetening  positive feedback system  ethylene triggers ripening  ripening stimulates more ethylene production

AP Biology Apoptosis in plants What is the evolutionary advantage of loss of leaves in autumn?  Many events in plants involve apoptosis  response to hormones  ethylene  auxin  death of annual plant after flowering  senescence  differentiation of xylem vessels  loss of cytoplasm  shedding of autumn leaves
