Ranunculus root (Root anatomy)
Explain the functions of each of the tissues in the root (primary xylem, primary pollen, cortex, epidermis). What are the similarities and differences between the anatomy of the root vs that of the stem?
Why is the secondary xylem and phloem always to either side of the vascular cambium and is the primary xylem pushed inwardly by the secondary tissues? How about the primary phloem, cortex and epidermis, are they pushed outward by the secondary tissues?

- I. Look for representative specimens of herbaceous dicot and monocot stem. The external parts that can be observed are nodes, internodes, leaf scar, lenticel, and buds (axillary and terminal). Examine and compare their external morphology by answering the questions below: 1.. What is the function of the lenticels? Do all stems have lenticels? 2. How can you differentiate a monocot plant from a dicot plant just by looking at the stem? 3. What advantage would herbaceous stems have over woody stems? 4. What advantage would woody stems have over herbaceous stems? II. Compare the internal anatomy of stems of xerophytes, mesophytes, and hydrophytes. Relate differences to the nature/habit of the different plants.arrow_forwardWhat is an adventitious root? In a monocot rhizome such as that of irises and bamboo, are adventitious roots common or rare?
