Anatomy Review BIO 201 - Botany
Herbaceous stems • Have separate vascular bundles • In each bundle:- Xylem toward center- Phloem toward outside • Bundle arrangement important- monocots randomly scattered- dicots in ring
Bundle details • Xylem • Phloem • Sclerenchyma • Cortex
TYPICAL TREE TRUNK ANATOMY • Wood – central largest portion • Cambium – thin area of small dividing cells • Bark – outer layer
TYPICAL TREE TRUNK ANATOMY • Bark to outside • Cambium thin!(dark line) • Xylem to inside(annual rings visible) • Pith in center
TREE ANATOMY • 2o phloem • Cambium • 2o xylem • 1o xylem • Growth ring • Vascular ray • Pith
Scanning electron micrograph (x60) of the wood of an angiosperm tree, the beech Fagus sylvatica, showing the 'drinking straw' vessels packed in between the narrower tracheids, and oriented parallel to the long axis of the trunk. Conifers have only tracheids. (Image: Brian Butterfield and Brian Meylan) CONTRASTING SECTION TYPES • Cross • Radial • Tangential
PINE CROSS SECTION • Tracheid cells circular • Can see annual rings (cell sizes slowly change) • Vascular rays elongate, but not well developed • Resin canals visible
PINE RADIAL SECTION • Tracheid cells elongate • Can see annual rings (cell sizes slowly change) • Vascular rays of elongate cells, but area squared • Resin canals visible
PINE TANGENTIAL SECTION • Tracheid cells elongate, pits visible • Cannot see annual rings • Vascular rays elongate with circular cells within • Resin canals visible
Softwood vs hardwood • Resin canals • Uniformity of xylem
Root anatomy All roots have • Endodermis • One vascular bundle at center
Monocot vs dicot roots Corn (monocot) buttercup (dicot)
Root anatomy - details • Epidermis • Cortex • Endodermis • Pericycle • Vascular tissue
