have larger vacuoles than animal cells?

How does a plant take up water?How does a plant take up water?

Read the following passage.

Most vascular plants live on land and obtain water from the soil through their roots by osmosis. Water present in surrounding soil particles may move into root hairs by osmosis. The millions of tiny root hairs together have a very large surface area for absorbing water into the roots epidermal cells. This results in a greater concentration of water molecules in the outer epidermal cells of the root than in the cortex. Thus, water moves by osmosis from epidermal cells into the cortex. From there, movement of water continues across the many cell layers of a root until the water finally enters the xylem.

Water and Minerals

Using the reading passages, create a flow map starting with water and ending with xylem.

If this flow chart was to continue, predict where

the water would go next?

Vascular plants also obtain minerals and nutrients from the soil through their roots. Mineral ions enter roots by diffusion, facilitated diffusion, or active transport. Some minerals are used in the root or are simply stored there. Other minerals enter the xylem. The xylem of roots extends into the stem and to the leaves. Water and dissolved ions are transported upward through this pipeline.

Water UptakeWater Uptake

The continuous uptake of water creates a pressure as osmosis draws water from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. This is referred to as root pressure.

Why are root hairs an adaptation for

plants?

Example of RootsExample of Roots

Tap Root Fibrous Root

Stems CharacteristicsStems Characteristics

Contains tubes to transport material through the plant. Vascular tissue – xylem and phloem

Stores nutrients for later use Holds leaves and flowers in the best position to

gather sunlight and for reproduction

StemsStems

2 Main types of stems Herbaceous – contain little or no woody tissues

and typically die each year and grow back.

Woody Stems - xylem that has died and hardened

Example tree trunks

QuestionQuestion

Does this cactus have a woody or herbaceous stem?

Giant saguaro Carnegiea gigantea in northern Sonora, Mexico. The weight of this large cactus is largely due to water storage tissue in the stems.

Leaf CharacteristicsLeaf Characteristics

Capture the sun’s energy Site of photosynthesis (although some stems

also conduct photosynthesis) Gas Exchange

Take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen Release excess water as a vapor

called transpiration Smallest grow near the top and largest grow near

the ground.

How does the water in the ground get to the tip toppity tip of a tree?

Water loss by evaporation in leaves.

Leaves a Closer LookLeaves a Closer Look

Find the stomataAnd Guard Cells

Epidermis - •skin of the leaf•single layer of cells•protects leaf from loss of too much moisture

Guard Cells- specialized cells on the underside of the leaf that control gas exchange.

Stomata – allows the leave to breath and transpire. Also give off moisture.
