Plant Tissue Types

Plant tissues include types like collenchyma, parenchyma, and sclerenchyma for support and storage, and meristematic tissues for growth.

Apical Meristems

Plant growth regions at the tips of roots and shoots capable of cell division, leading to primary plant body growth.

Parenchyma Cells

Plant cells involved in photosynthesis, respiration, and protein synthesis.

Xylem Function

Transports water and minerals from roots to stems and leaves.

Study Notes

Objectives of the Lesson

  • Identify various cell types in plant and animal tissues.
  • Classify these cells and describe their functions.
  • Understand how cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems work together to sustain life.

Levels of Organization

  • An organ consists of multiple tissues working collaboratively for a specific function.
  • An organ system comprises different organs that perform related functions.
  • Tissues are made up of similar cells that work together.
  • Cells are the fundamental units of life, forming all living organisms.

Plant Tissues

  • Types of Tissues:
    • Collenchyma, parenchyma, sclerenchyma (support and storage).
    • Meristematic tissues (apical, ground, procambium) for growth.
  • Apical Meristems:
    • Regions capable of cell division and growth at root and shoot tips.
    • Contribute to the primary plant body and root/shoot extensions.
  • Non-Meristematic Tissues:
    • Parenchyma is involved in photosynthesis, respiration, and protein synthesis.

Transportation Tissues in Plants

  • Xylem:
    • Transports water and dissolved minerals from roots to stems and leaves.
  • Phloem:
    • Distributes food made in leaves to all plant parts.

Types of Tissues in Multicellular Animals

  • Major Types:
    • Connective, epithelial, muscular, and nervous tissues.
  • Epithelial Tissues:
    • Cover external and internal surfaces, including the digestive and respiratory tracts.
  • Nervous Tissues:
    • Responsible for receiving and transmitting impulses throughout the body.

Muscle Tissues

  • Cardiac Muscle:
    • Involuntary muscle found exclusively in the heart.
  • Types of Muscle Tissue:
    • Includes cardiac, skeletal, and smooth (visceral) muscles.

Importance of Connective Tissues

  • Connective tissues bind and support different body parts.
  • They serve as a packing material and help in excretion and secretion.
  • Provide structural support and strength to bodily structures.

Nervous Tissues Functions

  • Motor neurons transmit signals away from the central nervous system to effectors.
