Leaf tendrils are coiled structures that attaches a plant for support. A leaf tendril will generally have a bid in its axil or will be a modified leaflet of a compound leaf. Example: pea Stem tendril are a slender, coiled structure that is a modified part of a stem that provides support. A stem tendril is generally in the axil of a leaf or leaf scar. Also, if a tendril originates from an axillary bud, then it is a stem tendril. Example: Virginia Creeper, Grape.
Some examples of stem-tendril plants include grapevines (Vitis vinifera), sweet peas (Lathyrus odoratus), and passion flowers (Passiflora spp). These plants have specialized structures that help them climb and support themselves as they grow.
no, it is a leave modification
Answer: Tendril Figured it from a crossword puzzle.
A tendril represents a coiled wiry structure that a grapevine stem modifies into. Tendrils help the grapevine cling and climb onto structures for support.
Yes they do , The tendrils are slender , coiling , with modified stem structures
The word tendril is applied to a thin threadlike stem typically used as a support by climbing plants. The word is used metaphorically to describe similar structures, such as thin wisps of smoke or condensates.
no. they are analogous organs
A tendril is a modified stem, leaf, or petiole. They are typically more round than flat and function to hold the plant up as it grows. Their movement is caused by differential growth on the part of the tendril which is not in contact with anything. Where the tendril comes in contact with a fence, trellis, or almost anything else, the growth and elongation of cells in that area are slowed. The cells not in contact with something continue normal growth and elongation. The effect is that the tendril grows around whatever it touches.
A tendril is a noun. In zoology, a tendril is a hair-like tentacle.
The plural of tendril is tendrils.
Stem tendrils are thin, spiraled structures that help the plant climb or support itself by twisting around objects. They are usually leafless and modified from stems or leaves. Stem tendrils are flexible and capable of coiling around structures for support.
