Summary Introduction

To diagram: The internal structure of a dicot root after primary growth, labeling, and describing the function of epidermis, cortex, endodermis, pericycle, xylem, and phloem.

Introduction:

The dicotyledons and monocotyledons differ from each other in many ways. There are two cotyledons in dicots and one cotyledon in monocots. In addition, the roots of dicots differ from monocots roots.

Sketch observations of monocot stem cross section and the dicot stem cross section. Label the epidermis, phloem, xylem, cortex, and pith or ground tissue
Describe the short-distance transport of water into the xylem. Use the terms root hairs, endodermis, and Casparian strip.
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? A pear has a hard texture but juicy. State two cells that give the characteristics? State the function of the transitional epithelium found in the mammalian urinogenital system. (i) Identify type of tissue lines the air sacs of the lungs. (ii) Explain how the tissue named in (i) adapted to its function.
