- You have discovered a new plant species that you think may be a gymnosperm. Which of the following features would you NOT expect it to have? Cones Fruits Vascular tissue like xylem and phloem Seedsarrow_forwardWhy do plants have two types of lateral meristem?arrow_forwardT/F Question Parenchyma is soft, internal plant tissue. Xylem and phloem are plant structural tissue. Periderm tissue is a type of plant epidermis in young stems and roots. Plant shoots include stems, leaves, and flowers. Monocot stems have their vascular bundles arranged in a ring pattern in the ground tissue. Eudicots have their leaf veins arranged in a parallel pattern. Photosynthesis in leaves takes place in the mesophyll layer Eudicots possess a large taproot. The limiting factor for plants is phosphorus. Root hairs help to decrease the absorbtive surface area of a plant. Xylem conducts plant sugars and organic molecules. Plant tissues grow from meristem cells that continually divide during the growing season. Primary plant growth involves thickening of the stems and roots. Plants can undergo asexual reproduction without cross-pollination. The fertilization process in plants is a double fertilization process. Over 1/3 of the U.S. food supply comes from the cross-pollination…arrow_forward
