1
New cards
TE, fibers (s), parenchyma
What three types of tissues are in xylem?
2
New cards
fibers
both xylem and phloem have sclernhyma and parenchyma, but xylem has only ___ not schlerids
3
New cards
parenchyma
Both albuminous and companion cells are modified _____ cells
4
New cards
water/minerals
The main function of xylem is transport of ____/_____
5
New cards
trachids, VE
Two parts of treachery elements are _____ and __
6
New cards
xylem
phloem or xylem have vessel elements?
7
New cards
phloem
phloem or xylem have sieve tube elements?
8
New cards
pit
a gap in the secondary wall is called what
9
New cards
pit pairs
are adjoining pits between two neighboring cells
10
New cards
pit membrane
the middle lamella and primary cell walls between two pits
11
New cards
tips, sides
the pits are at the ____ and the ____ of trachids
12
New cards
bordered
the pit pairs are called ____ if they have a torus and a margo
13
New cards
torus
the inflated membranes between pits of two cells
14
New cards
margo
the thinner membranes surrounding a torus where water flows through
15
New cards
conifers
bordered pit pairs are only found in _______
16
New cards
vessel elements
shorter and wider than trachids, perforation plates with pits
17
New cards
vessel elements
what tissue has perforation plates?
18
New cards
water
The VE are better than trachids because they can move more ___
19
New cards
cavitation
the process of forming an embolism (air pocket)
20
New cards
VE
These are more likely to form embolisms than trachids because they are wider
21
New cards
plugs
When an embolism may form in a trachid, the torus ___ the pit to the other cell. This only happens in CONIFERS
22
New cards
short
parenchyma in xylem is used to transport water over ___ distances
23
New cards
nucleus, vacuole
as the xylem develops, what two cells disintegrate?
24
New cards
protoxylem
what type of xylem develops first? looks like slinky
25
New cards
metaxylem
what type of xylem develops later? looks pitted and has SECONDARY WALLS
26
New cards
Phloem
___ transports many substances like sugars, amino acids, lipids, micronutrients, hormones, proteins, and RNA
27
New cards
secondary
the _____ phloem develops from the exact same cells as the primary phloem
28
New cards

29
New cards
sieve tube elements
Angiosperms have what type of phloem?
30
New cards
sieve areas
pores that connect adjacent sieve elements
31

35
New cards
support
in xylem and phloem, fibers and schlerids role is to do what?
36
New cards
sieve plates
sieve tube elements are connected at their tips by what?
37
New cards
sieve areas
instead of having pits like xylem, phloem has ___ ____
38
New cards
sieve tubes
the connection of sieve tube elements into a long line
39
New cards
living
unlike xylem cells, phloem cells are ____ at maturity
40
New cards
phloem, parenchyma, collenchyma
the three types of tissues that have cells which are living at maturity
41
New cards
p-protein
distributed along the walls when sieve plate pores are open, It fills the pores of the sieve plate if the cell is ruptured
