main photosynthetic organ of most vascular plants.monocots and eudicots differ in arangement of veins TERM 7

plant tissues

DEFINITION 7 dermal, vascular and ground tissues are in each organ TERM 8

dermal tissue

DEFINITION 8 in non-woody plants it consists of the epidermis. it is the outermost layer TERM 9

cuticle

DEFINITION 9 waxy coating that prevents water loss on top of dermal tissue TERM 10

vascular tissue

DEFINITION 10 Xylem- water and dissolves mineralsPholem-transports organic nutrients to where they are needed.innermost tissue layer

secondary growth

(getting fat) occurs in stems and roots of woody plants due to cell division of vascular and cork cambium TERM 17

vascular

cambium

DEFINITION 17 adds layers of secondary xylem (wood) and secondary phloem TERM 18

cork

cambium

DEFINITION 18 replaces the epidermis with periderm, which is thicker and tougher TERM 19

pericycle

DEFINITION 19 lateral roots rise from within the preicycle, the outermost cell layer in the vascular cylinder
