Concept explainers
To determine: The three tissue systems in plants.
Introduction: Plants are non-motile living beings that are capable of producing their own food by utilizing the sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water. Roots, stems, and leaves of the plants are organized into the three tissues of plant organs such as dermal tissue system, vascular tissue system, and ground tissue system, respectively. The interaction of these plant tissue systems coordinates every plant organ.

- Species Interactions Explain how predators, prey and scavengers interact. Explain whether predators and scavengers are necessary or beneficial for an ecosystem.arrow_forwardmagine that you are conducting research on fruit type and seed dispersal. You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different. (Editor’s note: Providing this information in your discussion will help readers to consider the significance of the research).arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between Uniporters, Symporters and Antiporters? Which of these are examples of active transport?arrow_forward
