Chapter 7 vocabulary (1-20)
Across
- 3. an impermeable waxy substance present in the cell walls of corky tissues.
- 4. tissue strengthened by the thickening of cell walls, as in young shoots.
- 6. an inner layer of cells in the cortex of a root and of some stems, surrounding a vascular bundle
- 8. a flowering plant with an embryo that bears two cotyledons (seed leaves)
- 10. the outer layer of tissue in a plant, except where it is replaced by a periderm.
- 11. a flowering plant with an embryo that bears a single cotyledon (seed leaf).
- 15. a band of cell wall material deposited in the radial and transverse walls of the endodermis, and is chemically different from the rest of the cell wall; made of Suberin and sometimes lignin
- 16. a protective and waxy or hard layer covering the epidermis of a plant, invertebrate, or shell.
- 17. the vascular tissue in plants that conducts water and dissolved nutrients upward from the root and also helps to form the woody element in the stem.
- 18. a pore in the epidermis of a leaf, bounded by two guard cells and needed for efficient gas exchange
Down
- 1. a thin layer of plant tissue between the endodermis and the phloem.
- 2. each elongated microscopic outgrowth from the outer layer of cells in a root, they absorb moisture and nutrients from the soil.
- 3. strengthening tissue in a plant, formed from cells with thickened, typically lignified, walls.
- 5. a strand of conducting vessels in the stem or leaves of a plant, typically with phloem on the outside and xylem on the inside.
- 7. Cellsa thin-walled unsuberized cell found in the endodermis of vascular plants often opposite the protoxylem strands —called also transfusion cell.
- 9. region of the plant cell wall in which secondary wall is interrupted, exposing the underlying primary cell wall.
- 12. a fungus which grows in association with the roots of a plant in symbiotic or mildly pathogenic relationship.
- 13. cell type in xylem and the building blocks of vessels.
- 14. the cellular tissue, typically soft and succulent, found chiefly in the softer parts of leaves, pulp of fruits, bark and pith of stems, etc.
- 16. an outer layer of tissue immediately below the epidermis of a stem or root.
