Xylem cells are specialized for the transport of water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant.

Tracheids are specialized cells in the xylem that facilitate the transport of water and minerals.

Secondary growth refers to the increase in girth of stems and roots, primarily in woody plants.

Primary growth occurs at the tips of roots and shoots, leading to an increase in length.

Tropic growth refers to directional growth in response to environmental stimuli, such as light or gravity.

Xerophytes are plants adapted to survive in arid environments with limited water availability.

Gymnosperms are vascular plants that produce seeds, often in cones.

Ferns are vascular plants, possessing a vascular system for transporting water and nutrients.

CAM plants are adapted to conserve water and are efficient in hot, dry environments.

CAM plants are adapted to photosynthesize efficiently in low light and arid conditions.

Sexual reproduction in plants involves the formation of seeds through fertilization.

Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes to form a zygote.

Sexual reproduction in plants often involves the production of spores, especially in ferns and mosses.

Asexual propagation is commonly used in horticulture for its efficiency and ability to produce clones of desirable plants.

Collenchyma tissue is characterized by living cells with unevenly thickened cell walls, providing flexible support.

Parenchyma tissue can help in healing wounds due to its ability to divide and differentiate into various cell types.

Parenchyma tissue, particularly in leaves, contains chloroplasts and is primarily involved in photosynthesis.

Meristematic tissue is involved in the healing of wounds as it contains undifferentiated cells that can divide and differentiate.

Phloem is responsible for the transport of organic compounds, particularly sugars, throughout the plant.

Parenchyma cells, particularly those in the leaves, contain chloroplasts and are primarily responsible for photosynthesis.

Lateral meristem is responsible for secondary growth, which increases the thickness of stems and roots.

Phloem not only transports sugars but also plays a role in the transport of hormones throughout the plant.

Xylem is the tissue responsible for transporting water and minerals from roots to other parts of the plant.

Xylem is the tissue responsible for the transport of water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant.

Cross-pollination involves the transfer of pollen between different flowers of the same species, promoting genetic diversity.

tRNA (transfer RNA) carries amino acids to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is responsible for bringing the appropriate amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

Ground tissue, particularly parenchyma cells containing chloroplasts, is primarily involved in photosynthesis.

Vitamin K is crucial for blood clotting and is abundant in green leafy vegetables.

Vitamin A, particularly in the form of beta-carotene from plants, is crucial for vision.
