Plant Structure, Reproduction, and Development

A Gentle Giant• Gymnosperms

– Are one of two groups of seed plants

– Bear seeds in cones

• Angiosperms, or flowering plants

– Are the most familiar and diverse group of plants

TALKING ABOUT SCIENCE

31.1 Plant scientist Natasha Raikhel studies the Arabidopsis plant as a model biological system

• Natasha Raikhel

– Is one of America’s most prominent plant biologists

Figure 31.1A

• Dr. Raikhel works with Arabidopsis

– A popular model organism for studying biological systems

PLANT STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

31.2 The two main groups of angiosperms are the monocots and the dicots

• Monocots and dicots differ in

– The number of seed leaves and in the structure of roots, stems, leaves, and flowers

Onecotyledon Main veins usually parallel

Vascular bundles in complex arrangement

Floral parts usuallyin multiples of three

Twocotyledons Main veins usually branched

Vascular bundles arranged in ring

Floral parts usually inmultiples of four or five

Taprootusually present

DICOTS

31.3 A typical plant body consists of roots and shoots

• A plant’s root system

– Anchors it in the soil

– Absorbs and transports minerals and water and stores food

• The shoot system of a plant

– Is made up of stems, leaves, and adaptations for reproduction, flowers

31.4 Many plants have modified roots, stems, and leaves

• Some plants have unusually large taproots

– That store food in the form of carbohydrates

• Many plants have modified stems

– That store food or function in asexual reproduction

• Other types of plants have modified leaves

– That function in protection or climbing

31.5 Plant cells and tissues are diverse in structure and function

• Most plant cells have three unique structures

– Chloroplasts, the sites of photosynthesis

– A central vacuole containing fluid

– A cell wall that surrounds the plasma membraneChloroplast Central

• Plants have five major types of cells

– Parenchyma, which perform most of the metabolic functions

– Collenchyma, which provide supportPrimary cell wall (thin)

Cytoplasm

• Two kinds of vascular tissue are

– Xylem, which conveys water and minerals

– Phloem, which transports sugars

31.6 Three tissue systems make up the plant body

• Each plant organ is made up of threetissue systems

– The dermal,vascular, and ground tissue systems

Figure 31.6

• The dermal tissue system

– Covers and protects the plant

• The vascular tissue system

– Contains xylem and phloem and provides long-distance transport and support

• The ground tissue system

– Consists of parenchyma cells and supportive collenchyma and sclerenchyma cells

PLANT GROWTH

31.7 Primary growth lengthens roots and shoots

• Meristems, areas of unspecialized, dividing cells

– Are where plant growth originates

• Apical meristems

– Are located in the tips of roots and in the terminal and axillary buds of shoots

– Initiate primary (lengthwise) growth by producing new cells

Figure 31.7A

Arrows = direction of growth

• Roots are covered with a root cap

– That protects the cells of the apical meristem

• Axillary bud meristems

– Are found near the apical meristems

31.8 Secondary growth increases the girth of woody plants

• Secondary growth arises from cell division

– In a cylindrical meristem called the vascular cambium

• The vascular cambium thickens a stem

– By adding layers of secondary xylem, or wood, next to its inner surface

REPRODUCTION OF FLOWERING PLANTS

31.9 Overview: The sexual life cycle of a flowering plant

• The angiosperm flower consists of

– Sepals, petals, stamens, and carpalsStigma

• Pollen grains develop in anthers

– At the tip of stamens

Embryo

• The tip of the carpel, the stigma– Receives pollen grains

• The ovary, at the base of the carpel– Houses the egg-producing structure, the ovule

Figure 31.9B

31.10 The development of pollen and ovules culminates in fer tilization

• In the diploid sporophyte of an angiosperm

– Haploid spores are formed within ovules and anthers

• The spores in the anthers

– Give rise to male gametophytes, pollen grains, which produce sperm

• A spore in an ovule

– Produces the embryo sac, the female gametophyte, which contains an egg cell

• Pollination

– Is the arrival of pollen grains onto a stigma

• A pollen tube grows into the ovule

– And sperm pass through it and fer tilize both the egg and a second cell in a process called double fer tilization

• Gametophyte development and fertilization in an angiosperm Development of male

31.11 The ovule develops into a seed

• After fertilization, the ovule becomes a seed

– And the fertilized egg within it divides and becomes an embryo

Two cells

• The other fertilized cell

– Develops into the endosperm, which stores food for the embryo

• The internal structures of dicot and monocot seeds

– Differ in a variety of ways

31.12 The ovary develops into a fruit• Angiosperms form fruits

– Which help protect and disperse the seeds

• Angiosperm fruits

– May differ in size and development

31.13 Seed germination continues the life cycle

• A seed starts to germinate

– When it takes up water and star ts to expand

• The embryo resumes growth

– And absorbs nutrients from the endosperm

• An embryonic root emerges

– And a shoot pushes upward and expands its leaves

• In dicot germination, the root emerges first

– Followed by the shoot, which is covered by a protective hook

• In monocot germination

– A protective sheath surrounding the shoot breaks the soil

31.14 Asexual reproduction produces plant clones• Asexual reproduction can be achieved via

– Bulbs, sprouts, or runners

CONNECTION

1.15 Asexual reproduction is a mainstay of modern agriculture

• Propagating plants asexually from cuttings or bits of tissue

– Can increase productivity but can also reduce genetic diversity
