Summary Introduction

To determine:

The non-biological analogies for vessel elements, lignin, stomata, and phloem.

Concept introduction:

There are various structures and organs that play a supportive role in proper functioning of the plants. The structures like vascular bundles including xylem and phloem vessels help in the conduction of food and water along with transport of minerals to all the parts of a plant. Stomata which are the structures facilitate in gaseous exchange and all other structures support various organs in their functions.

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. c) collenchyma conducts water and dissolved nutrients from the roots to other plant tissues. support of vascular tissue in older woody plants and formation of very hard plant structures such as nut shells. d) periderm e) parenchyma metabolism and storage. f) sclerenchyma conducts molecules produced by the plant throughout the plant body. g) epidermis provides physical protection for woody plants.
