Exam #2 M 3/8 in classQ&A Fri. 3/5 from 4-6pm in WRW 102
Plants grow and reproduce, as well as, respond to the environment.
Plants grow and reproduce, respond to the environment… today- transport
Types of Plant Cells:defined by function and cell wall
Fig 6.9
Plant cell walls are mostly made of cellulose
Cellulose is made of glucose
Fig 5.7
Fig 5.8
Cellulose is made of
glucose
Fig 5.9
Only a few prokaryotes and fungi can digest cellulose
Cell walls contain cellulose, pectins, proteins...

Parenchyma cells- most common cells; primary cell walls
Fig 35.17Parenchyma in a stem

Collenchyma cells- unevenly thickened cell walls; flexible support
80 m
Collenchyma in a leaf
Sclerenchyma cells- Thickened secondary walls (inside primary wall); with lignin; rigid

Water conducting cells of Xylem:
vesselsand
tracheids(types of sclerenchyma)
100 m
Sugar conducting cells of Phloem: sieve-tubes and companion cells
15 m
30 m

Fig 36.2
Plants transport water in xylem, sugar in phloem, plus minerals and hormones…
Fig 36.2
Water travels from ground out through stomata via xylem
Fig 36.2
The exit of water through stomata is accompanied by gas exchange
Fig 36.2
Sunlight powers photosynthesis and these sugars are transported via phloem
Fig 36.20
Phloem transport is from source to sink.
Fig 36.20
Sugar is loaded at sources and unloaded at sinks...
consuming ATP
source:leaf
sink:root, flower, emerging leaf etc…
Source and sink locations vary...
The direction of Phloem transport is versatile.
Fig 36.10
Much of plant support comes from turgor pressure.
CB 36.15
Water moves from the ground through roots into the shoot and out stomata in the leaves.
Fig 35.13
In roots the vascular bundle is in the center
Fig 36.11
Plant cell to cell transport can occur by two pathways: symplastic and apoplastic
plasmodesmata
Fig 36.12
The casparian strip of the endodermis keeps water from entering the xylem via a purely apoplastic route.
What moves the water through the xylem?
Stomata control entry of CO2 and exit of H2O from plant leaves
Stomata

Stomata on the underside of a leaf
Fig 36.17
Guard cell opening is regulated by turgor

What moves the water through the xylem?Transpiration, Adhesion, Cohesion, andTension
water transport limits plant growth
xylem
phloem
More xylem is needed for more water transport: secondary growth
xylem
phloem
Xylem is tough, and full of lignin- inhibits the ability to use plants to produce biofuels
