Part 2 Pre-Reading Structure of
and Growth of Dicotyledonous Stem NOTES
Instructions: Reading Pages 238-240, 244 in your textbook and address the learning objectives below:
 9.1.1 Draw and label plan diagrams to show the distribution of tissues in the stem. Either sunflower, bean
or another dicotyledonous plant with similar tissue distribution should be used.
o Note that plan diagrams show distribution of tissues (for example, xylem, phloem) and do not show
individual cells. They are sometimes called “low- power” diagrams.
 9.1.5 State that dicotyledonous plants have apical and lateral meristems. 1 Apical meristems are sometimes
referred to as primary meristems, and lateral meristems as cambium. Meristems generate new cells for
growth of the plant.
 9.1.6 Compare growth due to apical and lateral meristems in dicotyledonous plants. 3
Part 3 Guided Notes 9.1. STEMS PowerPoint
Instructions: Look at the 9.1.1 STEMS Powerpoint on Stems and fill in the blanks and answer the questions.
What is a Dicotyledon?

: a type of flowering plant with two embryo leaves (2 cotyledons)
Function of Stem
 Stems connect the leaves, roots, and flowers of plants and
between them using xylem and phloem.
 Stems provide
.
How do stems provide support?
 Cells absorb water and high pressure develops inside the cell. This is
and it
makes cell almost rigid.
 Some cells develop
which strengthens the plant
 Cell Walls in the
are both
making
them very strong. Xylem provides support especially in woody stems.
State two methods by which terrestrial plants support themselves.
1. .....................................................................................................................................
2. ....................................................................................................................................
Tissues in the Dicotyledon Stem

: surface of the stem made of a number of layers often with a waxy cuticle to
reduce water loss.

: Forming a cylinder of tissue around the outer edge of the stem.
Often contains cells with secondary thickening in the cell walls which provides additional support.

: contains xylem, phloem and cambium tissue.

: a longitudinal set of tubes that conduct water from the roots
upward through the stem to the leaves. CELLS are DEAD!

transports sap through the plant tissue in a number of
possible directions. CELLS are alive!

is a type of lateral meristem that forms a vertical cylinder in the
stem. The cambium produces the secondary xylem and phloem through cell division in the vertical plane.

In the centre of the stem can be found the
composed of thin walled
cells called
. In some plants this section can degenerate
to leave a hollow stem.
IB LEARNING OBJECTIVE
9.1.1 Draw and label plan diagrams to show the distribution of tissues in the stem a dicotyledonous plant. Show
distribution of tissues (for example, xylem, phloem). They are sometimes called “low power” diagrams.
Growth and Development of Stems
 Plants grow is restricted to
called meristems. Having specific
regions for growth and development (restricted to just the
), contrasts
with animals in which growth takes place throughout the whole organism.
Two type of Meristem Tissue
 In dicotyledons there are two types of meristem tissue:
1.
-2.
.
Two type of Meristem Tissue

-- at the tops of roots and shoots allows them
to elongate (get longer)

-- located in the cambium in the vascular
bundles, makes roots and shoots
, with extra xylem and phloem tissue
Types of Cambium (lateral meristem) growth

vascular cambrium for vascular tissue with no thickening

-- thickens cell wall with cellulose and lignin
o
that
,
o
produces some of the
of a stem.

 9.1.1 Draw and label plan diagrams to show the distribution of tissues in the LEAVES Either sunflower, bean
or another dicotyledonous plant with similar tissue distribution should be used.
o Note that plan diagrams show distribution of tissues (for example, xylem, phloem) and do not show
individual cells. They are sometimes called “low- power” diagrams.
 9.1.3 Explain the relationship between the distribution of tissues in the leaf and the functions of these
tissues.
o This should be restricted to dicotyledonous plants.
o The functions should include: absorption of light, gas exchange, support, water conservation, and the
transport of water and products of photosynthesis.
Part 5 Guided Notes 9.1. Leaves PowerPoint
Instructions: Look at the 9.1. Leaves Powerpoint on Stems and fill in the blanks and answer the questions.
9.1 Leaves
 Leaves are involved in
.
 Leaves vary great in form but generally the consist of a flattened portion called
and
a stalk called
that attaches to the blade to the stem.
9.1.1 Draw and label plan diagrams to show the distribution of tissues in the stem and leaf of a dicotyledonous plant

is a waxy layer which reduces water loss through the upper epidermis.

is a flattened layer of cell that forms the surface of the leaf and makes the cuticle.

: This is the main photosynthetic region of the leaf.

bundle: contains the transport system and vascular meristem tissue (x-xylem, pphloem).

mesophyll: contains spaces that allows the movement of gases and water through
the leaf
.

epidermis: bottom surface layer of tissues which contains the guard cells that form
each stoma.
9.1.3 Explain the relationship between the distribution of tissues in the leaf and the functions of these tissues.( 3)
Leaf Tissues:
 (a)
transports the products of photosynthesis (sugars, amino acids).
 (b)
transports water and minerals into the leaf tissue from the stem and roots.
 c)
produces a waxy cuticle for the conservation of water.
 (d)
which is the main photosynthetic region.
 (e)
creates the spaces and surfaces for the movement of water and gases.
 (f)
contains the stomatal pores which allow gas exchange with the leaf.
 The xylem and phloem tissues combine in the vascular tissue to provide support to the leaf.
 Stomata a pore on the lower side of a leave that allows for gas exchange
9.1.1 Draw and label plan diagrams to show the distribution of tissues in the stem and leaf of a dicotyledonous
plant. Either sunflower, bean or another dicotyledonous plant with similar tissue distribution should be used.
9.1.3 Explain the relationship between the distribution of tissues in the leaf and the functions of these tissues.
This should be restricted to dicotyledonous plants. The functions should include: absorption of light, gas exchange,
support, water conservation, and the transport of water and products of photosynthesis.

, and when to
.
How do plants know they need to grow?

Plant Hormones

A hormone is a substance that is produced in one part of an organism and affects another part of the same
individual.

The portion of an organism affected by a particular hormone is known as its


To respond to a hormone, the target cell must contain a receptor to which the hormone binds.

If the receptor is present, the hormone can influence the target cell by:

.


They described an experiment in which oat seedlings demonstrated a response known as
.

Darwin’s Experiment
 In the experiment, they placed an

 This plant
, even though the rest of the plant
was uncovered.
 However,
, the plant
would bend toward the light as if the shield were not there.
 The Darwins suspected that the
produced
substances that
.
 Forty years later, these
were identified and named
.
 When light hits one side of the stem,
.
 This change in concentration stimulates cells on the

 As a result, the stem bends away from the shaded side and
