Chapter 35, Problem 2IQ
a.
Summary Introduction
To explain: Plant cells that are dead at functional maturity.
Introduction: Plants are eukaryotic organism and belong to the Plantae kingdom. Plants are autotrophs and can generate their own food by the process of photosynthesis. Plant cells have cell walls made outside the cell membrane. It is composed of hemicellulose, cellulose, and pectin.
b.
Summary Introduction
To explain: Plant cell that lack nuclei at functional maturity.

What are the main types of plant cells and how do they contribute to the formation of different tissues in the plant body ?
5) Match the tissue name on the left with the description that best matches the structure of cells
making up that tissue on the right:
a) collenchyma
cells are round, have very thin walls, and are alive at
maturity.
b) phloem
cells have relatively few organelles and are hollow.
c) parenchyma
cells have thin walls and sometimes secrete a waxy
substance.
d) xylem
cells have thick secondary cell walls reinforced with lignin.
e) epidermis
cells are long with a primary cell wall that is thickest at the
ends of the cell, but no secondary cell wall.
f) periderm
cells are long and thin, hollow, with pits lining the sides of
the cells.
g) sclerenchyma
some cells of this tissue have thick cell walls, whereas
other cells of this tissue do not.
6) Match the tissue on the left with the description of the function it generally performs for the
plant on the right:
a) phloem
flexible support, such as in petioles and herbaceous stems.
b) xylem
forms an outer barrier for leaves, young stems and roots.…
(a) Describe the role of mitosis in the growth of a plant.
(b) Explain why there are more cells observed in mitosis in the root tip
than in the woody stem.

- Look at As shown. Part (A) shows the lower half of a fusiform initial (actually most fusiform initials would be much taller than this), and part (B) shows the same cell after it has divided and one of the daughter cells is developing into a xylem cell. Did the fusiform initial divide with a periclinal wall or an anticlinal wall as it went from part a to part b? Part (D) shows that the same fusiform initial has now produced a second cell that is developing into a phloem cell. Was that phloem cell produced by a periclinal or an anticlinal division of the fusiform initial? Part (F) shows the fusiform initial dividing and forming a second fusiform initial. Is this division occurring by a periclinal wall or an anticlinal wall?arrow_forwardWhich of the following is NOT a function of the stem in a plant?
