    Study Notes

    Plant Organ Systems

    • The root system is responsible for absorbing water and minerals.

    Shoot System

    • The vegetative parts of the plant in the shoot system include stems, leaves, and buds.

    Shoot System Growth

    • The shoot system generally grows above ground.

    Tissues and Organs

    • Different types of tissues working together form an organ, and organs working together form an organ system.
    • Organs working together form an organ system in a plant.

    Meristematic Tissue

    • Cells of the meristematic tissue are found at the tips of shoots and roots, and in between segments of stems.
    • The main characteristic of meristematic tissue cells is that they are undifferentiated and can differentiate into different cell types.

    Meristem Locations and Functions

    • Apical meristems are located at the tips of shoots and roots.
    • The function of lateral meristems in a maturing plant is to increase the diameter of the stem.
    • Intercalary meristems occur in the internodes of stems and leaves.
