What is it called when water goes up the stem?
Root pressure is what causes water to rise from the roots to the stems. Water travels through the xylem throughout the plant.
What does the outside layer of roots and stems develop from?
The outer layer of roots and stems, called the epidermis, develops from the protoderm, which is one of the three primary meristems in plant growth. The protoderm gives rise to the outer protective layer of cells that covers the plant's surface.
How are vascullar tissues arranged in dicot stems?
Vascular tissues in dicot stems are arranged in a ring formation, with the xylem located towards the center and the phloem on the outer side. This arrangement provides structural support and efficient transport of water and nutrients throughout the plant. Cambium, a meristematic tissue that gives rise to secondary growth, is located between the xylem and phloem in dicot stems.
What can you do to try to save a withered plant?
Give the plant more water and it should slowly rise up again
What type of force do particles of water use to rise up stems?
Particles of water rise up stems due to a combination of cohesive and adhesive forces. Cohesion between water molecules creates tension, while adhesion between water molecules and the walls of the xylem cells helps pull the water up the stem. This process is known as capillary action.
Were does an ocotillo live?
The Ocotillo is a V-shaped woody shrub with cane like stems that rise upward from the base of the plant. It is widespread throughout the Southwestern US, and the Sonoran region of Mexico.
Why is a banana a fruit of the ground rather than a fruit of the tree?
Banana do not grow on trees. Their parent plants are herbs - plants with woody stems and are annuals or semi annuals. The root part of a banana plant is more or less permanent, and from which new stems rise and which then bear fruit.
What is a axillary meristem?
An axillary meristem is a type of plant tissue located in the axil of a leaf. It is a dormant or active region of cell division that can give rise to new stems, leaves, or flowers. Axillary meristems are responsible for branching and overall plant architecture.
The rise of water in a tall plant depends on root pressure and?
The rise of water in a tall plant also depends on capillary action and transpiration pull. Capillary action helps water move upward through small tubes in the plant's xylem, while transpiration pull helps create a negative pressure gradient that pulls water up from the roots to the leaves.
Can you show a the parts of a lotus?
A lotus plant consists of several key parts: the roots, which anchor it in the mud; the stems, which rise above the water; the leaves, which are large and circular, floating on the surface; and the flowers, characterized by their large, vibrant petals that bloom above the water. The flower typically has a central seed pod that develops after pollination. Each part plays a crucial role in the plant's survival and reproduction in aquatic environments.
What type of plants reproduce by rhizomes?
Plants like bamboo, iris, ginger, and turmeric reproduce through rhizomes. Rhizomes are underground stems that spread horizontally and give rise to new shoots, enabling the plants to propagate and spread.
Does a plant cell change shape?
yes if it has allot of water the cell membrane will push out on the cell wall and make the plant stiff and rise. but with little water the membrane wont push outwards and the plant will hang. hope this help you :)
