  • A fiber is an irregularly shaped cell that gives compression strength.
  • Aerobic Respiration utilizes agents with less oxidizing power such as sulfur, sulfate, nitrate, and fumarate.
  • Prokaryotes lack a membrane-bound nucleus such as bacteria and some eukaryotes such as yeast.
  • Obligate Anaerobes can aspire using only anaerobic compounds and die in the presence of oxygen.
  • ‘Facultative Anaerobic organisms make ATP through aerobic respiration.
  • Fermentation is the process by which sugar molecules are converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide or into organic acids.
  • Stem is a usually an erect cylindrical support system of the plant.
  • Stem can be a stalk or main trunk of a plant.
  • Stem functions for support and conduction of food, mineral, and water.
  • Dermal Tissue is a young stem's outer protective layer.
  • Nodes are structures on a stem where buds, leaves, and branches arise.
  • Internode is the distance between two nodes.
  • Monocot stem has a rind as its outer covering.
  • Dermal Tissues serves as the outer protective covering of the stem.
  • Ground Tissues are the ground tissues of the stem.
  • Pericycle serves as the outermost boundary of the stele.
  • Sclerenchyma contains sclerenchyma cells which have thick secondary walls and die at maturity.
  • Parenchyma is composed of parenchyma cells which are large, thin walled, and undifferentiated.
  • Pith or Medulla is a tissue that is composed of soft, spongy parenchyma cells.
  • Procambium is the primary meristem.
  • Endodermis is the innermost layer of the cortex.
  • Vascular tissues provide structural support in plants.
  • Meristem is the tissue which contain meristematic cells.
  • Fibers are long and narrow cells that provide tensile strength without compromising flexibility.
  • Periderm is a multi-layered tissue that replaces the epidermis.
  • Vascular tissues are responsible for conducting food, minerals, and water throughout the plant.
  • The epidermis is composed of a single layer of tightly packed cells.
  • Collenchyma is composed of collenchyma cells, which have wall thickening, are alive at maturity and are part of vascular bundles.
  • Sclereid is a type of sclerenchyma cell.
  • Stele is the center of the stem.
