STEMS
Cards (41)
- It is a structural axis that supports the flowers, fruits, and leaves of a plant.
- It connects the other organs of the plant.
- This kind of stem is soft, green, and flexible.
- This kind of stem contain thick, tough tissue (wood).
- The cell wall of herbaceous stems are made of...
- The cell wall of woody stems are made of...
- It is a modified horizontal stems aboveground.
- It is a modified underground stems that grow horizontally.
- It is a modified usually swollen, underground stems that store nutrients and starch.
- It is a modified stem. They are large buds surrounded by numerous fleshy leaves. It has fibrous roots at the base and contains basal plate and tunic.
- It is a short, solid, swollen stem whose scales have been reduced to a dry, leaf-life covering. It lacks visible storage leaves.
- Crocus and Gladiolus are examples of...
- The stem of ginger and fern is...
- The stem of a strawberry plant is...
- It is also called "runners" because in many plants, they run along the surface of the soil.
- It is a point on the stem from which leaves or buds arise.
- It is the portion between two successive nodes.
- It is an undeveloped or embryonic shoot that may develop into a flower or leaf. It normally occurs in the axil of a leaf or at the tip of a stem.
- This type of bud is located at the tip of a stem.
- This type of bud is located at the axil (where leaves develop) of a leaf.
- Axillary Buds are also called...
- This is where leaves develop.
- The vascular bundle of monocot stems are...
- The vascular bundle of dicot stems are...
- The ground tissue of these stems are usually not clearly separated into Pith and Cortex.
- Most monocots have no secondary growth.
- Inside this stem, vascular bundles form a ring that divides the ground tissue into Cortex and Pith.
- It arises between the xylem and phloem, and it forms a cylinder and produces secondary xylem to the inside and secondary phloem to the outside. This secondary growth makes the stem wider and thicker.
- It is a dark wood located at the center of the tree trunk, and serves as the supporting pillar of the tree.
- It is often lighter colored wood located nearer the outside of the tree trunk; it is the only part where the active xylem substance is located; it transmits water and other substances along the plant body; and it gives the tree hardness
- When the sapwood dies, it becomes the heartwood.
- This is a characteristic of gymnosperms and many eudicots, but not monocots.
- It is the phloem produced near the outside of the stem, and is the protective covering of woody plants.
- It is a ring formed each year, and is a way to estimate the age of the stem (tree).
- This refers to plants that complete their life cycle in a year or less.
- This refers to plants that require two growing seasons.
