  4. Roots • Primary Root/Lateral Root • Anchors Plant • Storage of Nutrients • Root Hairs • Absorb H20 • Roughly 14 billion per plant • Root Cap • Protects Root • Pushes Through Soil

  5. Types of Roots • Tap • Tree • Fibrous • Corn • Rhizome • Grass http://www.ipm.iastate.edu/ipm/icm/files/images/cornrootwormdamage.jpg http://www.romanticflowers.com/forcing_amarylis2.jpg http://www.biology.iastate.edu/Courses/202L/New%20Site%20S05/R&S%20imgs/RtSyst/advent.JPG

  6. Types of Roots • Tuber • Potato • Corm • Gladiolus • Bulb • Daffodil http://members.chello.at/norbert.anderwald/Zamioculcas/images/Zz_tuber.jpg http://www.alabamaplants.com/Pinkalt/Liatris_elegans_corm.jpg http://www.bridgewater.edu/~lhill/images/fibrousroot.jpg

  7. Shoot • Stem • Support • Transportation • Leaves • Food Production of Plant • Flower/Fruit • Reproduction/Dispersal • Buds & Nodes/Internodes • Sight of new leaf of Branch

  8. Stem • Hold Plant Upright • Transport Water and Nutrients • Xylem-water and nutrients up from roots • Phloem-distribute sugars, amino acids and other products to rest of plant http://www.ringwoodbiology.co.uk/rotheryimages/stem1.jpg

  9. Leaves • Main Site of Photosynthesis • Assist in gas exchange • Helps with H2O movement through plant sunlight • 6 CO2 + 6 H2O    C6Hl2O6 + 6 O2

  10. Flower/Fruit • Reproduction • Seed Production • Dispersal of Seed through different types • Fruit • Wind • Water • Attachment http://www1.ics.uci.edu/~eppstein/pix/sv/fp/Burrs-m.jpg http://www.diabetesuffolk.com/Living%20with%20Diabetes/images/fruit.JPG

  11. Buds, Nodes & Internodes • Buds/ Nodes • Site of new Leaf or Branch • Internodes • Site in between Nodes
