Chapter 19, Problem 3SA
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Which plant tissue functions like the circulatory system in vertebrates and why the function of this tissue is not exactly the same like that of the vertebrate circulatory system.
Introduction:
The vascular tissue transports water and nutrients to all parts of a plant.

Which among the following statements is
incorrect about meristematic tissues?
Meristematic tissues are quite small which
allows large number of cell division
Their cytoplasm is quite dense which means
that they contain many cell organelles that
help them increase their rate of respiration
Their cell wall is thin which allows them to
divide easily
Larger vacuoles let them break easily and
give mechanical support
Which of the following statements correctly describes a difference between plants and animals?
(a) only animals need to take in water to survive
(b) plants do not have ways of defending themselves, but most animals do
(c) animals have internal structures that help them break down and absorb nutrients
(d) plants have structures that allow them to make their own food
What are the similarities of plant and animal tissues?

Question 12 options: None of their cells are in contact with their externl environment so that waste can not diffuse out of their bodies. All of their cells are in contact with their external environment so that nutrients and oygen can diffuse into cells. This is a misleading question because all animals have circulatory systems.

The skin tissue has large areas of empty space to allow efficient movement of fat tissue. The web-like structure of neurons are dendrites and axons that function to transport electrical charge across the length of the neuron. The open spaces in the lungs allows for efficient gas exchange. O The beating cilia on the inside layer of the trachea functions to prevent unwanted material from entering the lungs. O The holes observed on bone samples function to hold capillaries for nutrient transport.arrow_forward
