Success of the Angiosperms The angiosperms are seed-bearing vascular plants In terms of distribution and diversity, they are the most successful plants on Earth The structure and function of this plant group help explain its success

Internal Structure of a Dicot Stem Outermost layer is epidermis Cortex lies beneath epidermis Ring of vascular bundles separates the cortex from the pith The pith lies in the center of the stem Figure 29.11.a Page 499
31
Internal Structure of a Monocot Stem The vascular bundles are distributed throughout the ground tissue No division of ground tissue into cortex and pith Figure 29.11.b Page 499

Root Structure Root cap covers tip Apical meristem produces the cap Cell divisions at the apical meristem cause the root to lengthen Farther up, cells differentiate and mature Figure 29.16.a Page 502

Internal Structure of a Root Outermost layer is epidermis Root cortex is beneath the epidermis Endodermis, then pericycle surround the vascular cylinder In some plants, there is a central pith

Function of Endodermis Ring of cells surrounds vascular cylinder Cell walls are waterproof Water can only enter vascular cylinder by moving through endodermal cells Allows plant to control inward flow
52
Root Hairs and Lateral Roots Both increase the surface area of a root system Root hairs are tiny extensions of epidermal cells Lateral roots arise from the pericycle and must push through the cortex and epidermis to reach the soil new lateral root

Secondary Growth Occurs in all gymnosperms, some monocots, and many dicots A ring of vascular cambium produces secondary xylem and phloem Wood is the accumulation of these secondary tissues, especially xylem
57
What Happens at Vascular Cambium? Fusiform initials give rise to secondary xylem and phloem Ray initials give rise to horizontal rays of parenchyma

outer surface of stem root division One of the cells vascular cambium at the start of secondary growth. One of the two daughter cells differentiates into a xylem cell (coded blue), and the other remains meristatic. One of the two daughter cells differentiates into a phloem cell (coded pink), and the other remains meristatic. The same pattern of cell division and differentiation into xylem and phloem cells continues through the growing season. Fig. 29-20c, p.504
62
Secondary Growth Figure 29.20.c Page 504 Ongoing cell divisions enlarge the inner core of secondary xylem and displace vascular cambium toward the stem
