Dermal Tissue System
•  Epidermis
– Single layer, tightly packed cells
– Complex Tissue – Does different
things in different areas (roots vs.
leaves)
– usually transparent
– secretes cuticle
•  ___________ –
– replaces epidermis in woody plants
– protection
•  ____________
–  Tap Root
–  Lateral Roots
•  ____________
–  Stems
•  Nodes (leaves
are attached)
•  Internodes
–  Leaves
•  blades
•  petioles
–  Buds
Plant
Systems
•  Terminal
(apical)
•  Axillary
Plant Growth
•  ______________ Tissue
– generates cells for new
growth (like stem cells in
animals)
• apical meristems
• lateral meristems
Apical Meristems
• increases length called primary
growth
– ___________ - gives rise
to dermal tissue
– ________________gives rise to ground tissue
– _____________ - gives
rise to vascular tissue
Lateral Meristems
• increases girth called secondary
growth
– __________________produces secondary xylem and
secondary phloem
– ______________- produces
cork (outer most layer of bark)

The Root System
•  Functions
– anchor plant
– absorb minerals, water and
nutrients
– store food
•  Systems
– ____________ - one large root
with smaller lateral roots (dicots)
– ____________- threadlike roots
(monocots)
Root Structure
•  Four Regions
– _________– protection, also
secrete polysaccharide slime to
lubricate
– Region of ___________- new
cells
– Region of __________ - cells
get longer
– Region of _________ - cells
begin to specialize
Root Tissue
•  Protoderm - gives rise to the
epidermis
•  Ground Meristem
– Cortex (external to vascular
tissue)
•  Procambium - gives rise to the
_______ (the vascular tissue of a
root or stem)
–  xylem and phloem
– may include pith (parenchyma
cells surrounded by vascular
tissue)
Dicot Root vs. Monocot
Modified Roots
•  Food Storage
–  carrots, sweet
potatoes, yams

Shoot
System
The Shoot System
•  Made up of Stems, Leaves,
Flowers, Fruits
– Stems - support, conduction, growth
– Leaves - photosynthesis
– Flowers - pollination
– Fruits - seed protection, dispersal
Stems (Primary Growth)
•  Protoderm - gives rise to the
epidermis
•  Procambium - gives rise to the
stele
– xylem and phloem in vascular
bundles
• dicots - found in ring
• monocots - scattered
throughout
– includes “pith” in dicots
•  Ground Meristem
– Cortex
____________
– stele (vascular tissue)
divided into strands in
stems and leaves
Sclerenchyma
cells
Phloem
Xylem
Dicot Stem Vs. Monocot (35.16)
How can you tell root from stem?
Stems (Secondary Growth)
•  Occurs to increase girth
(thickness)
– Vascular Cambium
• produces secondary xylem and
secondary phloem
– Cork Cambium
• produces cork and phelloderm
(thin layer of parenchyma cells)
• together these structures are called
periderm (Cork Cambium, cork,
phelloderm)

___________ (Early) growth
occurs more
