Study Notes
Tissue Definition
- A group of cells similar in structure that work together to perform a particular function are called tissues.
Types of Tissues
- Tissues are classified into two main categories: Plant Tissues and Animal Tissues.
Plant Tissues
-
Plant tissues perform functions different from animals and have a distinct structure.
-
Classified into several subcategories:
Meristems
- Frequently the site of storage, sometimes support.
Simple (Ground) Tissue
- Frequently the site of storage, sometimes support.
Vascular Tissue
- Responsible for conduction of water and materials used in synthesis.
Dermal Tissue
- Provides protection and interface with the environment.
Secretory Tissue
- Protects against herbivores and pathogens, and attracts pollinators.
Plant Growth
- Primary growth: produces an increase in length and new structures.
- In the first year, all growth is primary growth.
- Secondary growth: increases the thickness of the plant.
