  1. “physis” nature of (ultimate reasons …) physical & chemical basis for functions -------------------------- structure – form anatomy and morphology Plant Physiology

  2. Lecture 75% Exam I -> 1/5 Exam II -> 1/5 Final -> 2/5 Lect. Qu.’s -> 1/5 --> % Every part is converted to a % score Lab 25% Battery of 12 Labs -> 48 pts Student Journal Independent Research Project -> 22 pts Journal Form:Intro, M & M, Results, Sum & Conclusions, Lit. Cited Lab Quizzes -> 40 pts TOTAL PTS -> 110 -> _% PLANT PHYSIOLOGY Bio 340 2011

  3. Lab Journal • For Each Investigation: • Purpose: • a statement of the main objective of the activity; what you are testing, measuring or observing • Procedures (Protocol): • provided by the instructor through oral communications and handouts; summarized in journal • Data (Results): • Your whole class data along with your own individual or group data whenever possible • Summary and Conclusions: • 4 pts/lab X 12 = 48 pts • (You Control the Organization!)

  4. Plant Functions: (?) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Plant Physiology

  5. Form & Function Plant Functions: 1. capture energy & assimilate carbon 2. distribute nutrients & water 3. grow & develop 4. reproduce 5. respond to the environment - How Plants Work Plant Physiology

  6. Form & Function Plant Functions – How they work I. Phytohormones II. Water Relations III. Biochemistry Main Units of Bio 340 Plant Physiology

  7. Transpiration? • Guard Cells, Stomates • glucose flux, ion flux

  8. Reductionism?

  9. Emergence?

  10. Vascular vs. Non-vascularPlants

  11. cell wall plasma membrane protoplast organelles nucleus/nucleoplasm cytoplasm Cytosol (gel) Plant Cellsmallest functional unit

  12. Plasma Membrane - Plasmalemma up to 50% Phospholipid up to 50% Protein Integral, Peripheral pores, enzyme systems bilayer in water impermeable to most charged particles made in ER, Chloroplasts & mitochndria fig 1.16 Plant Cellsmallest functional unit

  13. ___________ Protein ____________ Phospholipid __ Phospholipid ____________ Protein ____________ fig 1.17 Integral, Peripheral pores, enzyme systems Glycolipids PlasmalemmaUnit Membrane & Fluid Mozaic Models

  14. Vacuole - fluid-filled sac within most plant cells; surrounded by plasmalemma called tonoplast (aqueous) May be 80 - 90% of cell volume function: uptake of water and cell enlargement Plant Cellsmallest functional unit

  15. Nucleus - Genetic Material DNA Chromosomes Double Membrane - pores Nucleolus - Plant Cellsmallest functional unit

  16. Nucleus - Genetic Material DNA Chromosomes Double Membrane - pores Nucleolus - -> Ribosome production (Protein production) Plant Cellsmallest functional unit

  30. Plasmodesmata - continuation of plasmalemma between cells Desmotubules - continuation of ER Plant Cellsmallest functional unit

  31. Primary Pit Field - No secondary CW Pits, Pit Pairs Plant Cellsmallest functional unit

  32. Pathways • Symplast • connections of cytosol through plasmodesmata • Apoplast • non-cytoplasmic spaces

  33. Cells --> Tissues • Parenchyma - photosynthesis; storage • (Chlorenchyma); undifferentiated cells • Collenchyma - support • Sclerenchyma - support • Xylem - (tracheids & vessels) conducting • water & minerals • Phloem - (seive tube elements & • companion cells); conductingorganic food in • solution

  34. Cells --> Tissues • Epidermis - protective covering; replaced by • phlellem; (guard cells, cuticle) • Periderm - (Cork or phlellem cells); forms cork • cambium
