- While exploring a forest, you come upon a plant that you haven't seen before. You dig it up and take it back to your lab for further inspection. Back at the lab, you observe the characteristic structure of the plant and make some notes. Then, you carefully dissect the stems and leaves and look at the tissue under the microscope. Finally, you are able to determine the type of plant it is. Use the notes below to identify the class to which this plant belongs. Notes on physical characteristics of the specimen: the plant has no leaves or roots, but has hair-like rhizomes which anchors it in the soil the stems are highly branched sporangia are present at the ends of each stem dissection of the stem shows the presence of vascular tissue in the form of a xylem and phloemarrow_forwardIf you were given an unfamiliar vegetable, how could you tell if it was a root or a stem, based on its external features and a microscopic examination of its cross section?arrow_forwardHow can you identify the cross-section of a eudicot root from a eudicot stem?arrow_forward
- As part of an experiment you are required to observe the external features of a fern. State what microscope would you use and give reasons why? You have been provided with a plant showing the rooting system and the stem with several leaves. Give SIX features that you will look for to determine whether this is a monocotyledonous plant or a dicotyledonous plant. Present your answer in a clear, logical manner. In an experiment students were given the following materials and apparatus: - juices from three local fruits; 4% glucose solution; Benedict's solution; test tubes, beakers, syringes and boiling water bath. Describe CLEARLY the procedure that can be used to estimate the amount of glucos present in each juice. Use numbered steps in your answer.arrow_forwardAn Irish or white potato is a stem, but a sweet potato is a root. How can you tell?arrow_forwardIs the seedling shown on the right a monocot oreudicot?
