Study Notes
Plant Organ Composition
- Plant organs are comprised of tissues which are groups of similar cells performing a shared function.
Module Focus
- The modules delve into plant anatomy exploring the structure and function of various plant parts.
Basic Plant Structure
- The basic structure of plants is reflected in their organ systems which are collections of organs working together for specific functions.
Resource Requirements
- Most plants require access to resources from the environment including water, nutrients, and light.
Subterranean Roots & Aerial Shoots
- Subterranean roots are typically responsible for anchoring the plant and absorbing water and nutrients from the soil.
- Aerial shoots consist of stems and leaves and are primarily involved in photosynthesis, transporting, and reproduction.
