Summary Introduction
To explain: Label the indicated structure for the cross-section of a young stem given and explain whether this stem is eudicot or
Introduction: The stem is the major structural support for plants. Generally, the stem is divided into internodes and node, and there are four major functions of stem. They transport fluids between the shoots and roots in phloem and xylem, store nutrients, support, and involve in the elevation of flowers, fruits, and leaves, and generate new living tissue.

Observe the following photos of the shoot of a monocot (left) and an eudicot (right). How are these shoots similar? How do they differ in terms of the appearance (morphology) of the leaves and the way the leaves are attached?
Show the sequence of secondary growth by drawing the row of cells from the boxed area below and labeling the vascular cambium cell (V), 5 xylem cells from oldest (X1) to youngest (X5), and 3 phloem cells (P1 to P3). Show what happens after growth continues by drawing and labeling a row with twice as many xylem and phloem cells. How does the vascular cambium’s location change?

- How can you distinguish a simple leaf from the leaflet of a compound leaf? With a simple leaf a terminal bud will be located at the end of the stem. Buds are not located at the tips of compound leaves. Eudicots have compound leaves and monocots have simple leaves. Simple leaves are arranged alternately on a stem, but leaflets have an opposite arrangement on a rachis. Axillary buds are located where the leaf attaches to the stem. Leaflets of compound leaves do not have axillary buds. Simple leaves are larger than leaflets.arrow_forwardWhat is an adventitious root?
