Identify the tissue system from among the following:
1. Parenchyma | 2. Xylem |
3. Epidermis | 4. Phloem |
I: | forms the outer-most covering of the whole plant body. |
II: | comprises epidermal cells, stomata and the epidermal appendages – the trichomes and hairs. |
III: | is usually multi-layered. |
IV: | has parenchymatous cells without a vacuole. |
What would be true for A and B shown in the given diagram?
1. | A shows open stomatal aperture while B shows closed stomatal aperture |
2. | A shows closed stomatal aperture while B shows open stomatal aperture |
3. | A shows the stomata in grasses |
4. | B shows the stomata in grasses |
1. | Only stomatal aperture and guard cells but not subsidiary cells. |
2. | Only stomatal aperture but not guard cells and subsidiary cells. |
3. | Only guard cells and subsidiary cells but not stomatal aperture. |
4. | Stomatal aperture, guard cells and subsidiary cells but not other epidermal cells. |
1. | Absorb water from the soil. |
2. | Exchange gases with the environment, primarily for photosynthesis and respiration. |
3. | Transport nutrients from the roots to other parts of the plant. |
4. | Protect against herbivores by secreting defensive compounds |
