Study Notes
Plant Development
- Plants have a flexible body plan, which allows for continuous growth and adaptation to the environment.
- The main difference between plant and animal development is that plants have an open system of growth, whereas animals have a closed system of growth.
Plant Body Organization
- The root-shoot axis is significant in plant development as it establishes the polarity of the plant, determining the direction of growth.
Plant Module Organization
- A false statement about the internal organization of a plant module is that it has a fixed pattern of growth.
Embryonic Development in Plants
- During embryonic development in plants, the zygote undergoes multiple cell divisions, forming a spherical mass of cells called the proembryo.
- The proembryo develops into the radicle (primary root) and the hypocotyl (stem), establishing the root-shoot axis.
