What is storage tissue in roots and stems?
Storage tissue in roots and stems refers to specialized plant cells that store essential nutrients, water, and energy reserves, primarily in the form of starch, sugars, or oils. In roots, such as carrots or sweet potatoes, this tissue helps the plant survive periods of drought or nutrient scarcity. In stems, such as in tubers like potatoes, storage tissue allows for energy accumulation and supports vegetative reproduction. This adaptation is crucial for the plant's growth and survival, especially in challenging environmental conditions.
A food storage area in both the roots and stems is called the?
The food storage area in roots is called the cortex or storage roots, while in stems it is called the pith or storage stems. These areas store carbohydrates and other nutrients for future use by the plant.
What meristematic tissue increases the diameter of roots and stems?
cambium
What tissue in a plant does the minerals transport through?
the stems and roots
What type of tissue stores nutrients in plants?
Parenchyma tissue stores nutrients in plants. It is a type of simple plant tissue that is involved in functions such as storage, photosynthesis, and wound healing. It is commonly found in the cortex and pith of stems and roots.
What tissue makes up much of the inside of the nonwoody parts of a plant?
Parenchyma tissue makes up much of the inside of the nonwoody parts of a plant, such as the leaves, stems, and roots. It is responsible for functions like photosynthesis, storage, and support.
What carries water and are found in roots and stems?
The vascular tissue called the xylem.
Tissue made of thin walled cells found in leaves stems and roots?
Xylem
Meristerm that occurs at the tips of branches roots and stems?
Apical meristem is the term used to describe the region of plant tissue found at the tips of stems and roots that is responsible for their primary growth in length.
Is grass nonvascular?
No, they have roots and stems and vascular tissue
What are the characteristic of a seed?
Seed plants have roots, stems, leaves, has vascular tissue, and flowers that produce seeds.
Where do cactus plants store starch?
Cactus plants use their stems for storage. So that's where starches are stored. In fact, stems are where a cactus plant stores everything. Other, non cactus plants may use their roots for storage. But cactus roots are much too fibrous and shallow.
