Plant organs

• Guard cells regulate the opening and closing of stomata to control water loss and prevent excessive evaporation from plants.
• Stomata are openings on the surface of leaves, stems, and other plant structures that allow gas exchange between the atmosphere and internal tissues.
• Root hair cells increase the surface area available for absorption by extending thin projections called root hairs.
• Plant roots have different functions such as anchoring the plant, absorbing nutrients and water, and producing hormones.
• The epidermis is the outermost layer of cells that covers all plant parts.
• Stomatal density varies among plant species, with some having more than others.
• Some leaves have specialized structures called trichomes that cover their surface and reduce transpiration by decreasing air movement around them.
• The number of guard cells per stoma can also vary between different parts of a leaf or even within one leaf.
• The guard cell is responsible for controlling the size of the pore through which gases can pass into or out of the leaf.
• The epidermis is a single layer of specialized cells covering the outer surfaces of plant parts such as roots, stems, and leaves.
• Palisade mesophyll cells are located just below the upper epidermis of leaves and contain chloroplasts for photosynthesis.
• Epidermal cells have various functions including protection against pathogens, regulation of gas exchange through stomata, and absorption of water and minerals through root hairs.
• Leaves are the primary site of photosynthesis and contain chloroplasts which convert light energy into chemical energy.
• Guard cells are located at the edge of stomata on both sides of the opening.
• Leaves are modified to form spines, thorns, tendrils, and scales.
• Epidermal tissue is composed of dead cells arranged in layers or sheets covering the surfaces of plant organs.
• Guard cells are responsible for opening and closing stomata to regulate gas exchange and prevent excessive water loss from plants.
• Trichomes protect against insect herbivores and pathogens, reduce water loss through transpiration, and aid in pollination.
• Trichomes can also protect plants from insect herbivores or pathogens.
• Leaves are specialized structures found in vascular plants that serve various purposes including photosynthesis, transpiration, respiration, and protection against environmental stresses.
• Trichomes may function in protection against insect herbivores, water conservation, and photosynthesis.
• Epidermal cells can be specialized into guard cells or trichomes (hair-like structures).
• They contain chloroplasts which convert light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis.
• If the guard cells lose turgor pressure, they pull away from each other, closing the stomata.
• When the guard cells become turgid (swollen), they push against each other to open the stomata.
• Epidermal cells are usually thin-walled and contain chloroplasts to carry out photosynthesis.
• Cuticle is an impermeable waxy coating that protects the leaf's surface from desiccation and pathogens.
• Leaves are important photosynthetic organs found on most plants.
• Guard cells surround the stoma and control its size by changing shape.
• Stomatal density varies among species and is influenced by factors such as temperature, humidity, CO2 concentration, and light intensity.
• Palisade mesophyll is located directly beneath the upper epidermis and contains chloroplast-rich palisade cells oriented perpendicularly to the surface.
• Stomata are small openings in the leaf epidermis that allow gas exchange between the atmosphere and internal tissues.
• The epidermis is made up of one to several layers of tightly packed parenchymatous cells with thickened walls containing cutin.
• Stomata are small openings in the epidermis that allow gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen to enter and exit the leaf.
• The epidermis is the outermost layer of plant tissue and consists of dead cells with cuticles on their surface to prevent water loss.
• Mesophyll tissues consist of palisade mesophyll and spongy mesophyll.
• Stomatal complexes consist of two guard cells surrounding an opening called a stoma.
• The epidermis is the outermost layer of plant tissue and consists of dead cells with waxy cuticles on their surfaces.
• Cuticles protect leaves from drying out and reduce evaporation.
• Guard cells have thicker cell walls than adjacent epidermal cells.
