Learn about the different types of plants (kingdom Plantae) and what phylum they belong to, each type's characteristics, Plantae examples, and more.
Types of Vascular Plants Most plants are vascular and very few are not; therefore, this lesson will cover the types of vascular plants in broad generalizations. Plants like ferns, cycads, ginkgos, gnetophytes, conifers, angiosperms, monocots, and dicots comprise over a million species and can...
roots that grow from any portion of the plant other than the radicle are termed adventitious roots. they usually grow from leaves, stem nodes, etc. the adventitious root system is a common feature in monocots and is also seen in some dicots like strawberries. q2 what are stilt roots? stilt...
microfibrils makes it easier for the stomata to open. the stomata close when the turgidity of the guard cells decreases due to the water loss and the interior walls form a crescent shape retrieve their original shape. in dicots, the lower side of leaves have more stomata while in monocots...
In this lesson, learn what a vascular bundle in a plant is. Understand the differences between monocot and dicot vascular bundles and see vascular...
Like the dicots investigated previously, the R and M biotypes have larger grana stacks, and more light-harvesting chlorophyll alb protein than the S biotype. These are similar to the differences described between "shade-type" and "sun- type" chloroplasts although anatomical parameters, that ...
Prior drought stress may change plants response patterns and subsequently increase their tolerance to the same condition, which can be referred to as “drought memory” and proved essential for plants well-being. However, the mechanism of transcriptional drought memory in psammophytes remains unclear....
Hence, they function as a supporting tissue, especially around the new growing part of the plant. Collenchymas are usually found in monocot plants such as grasses and palms. In dicots, we can find them in the leaves of celery or lettuce. Collenchyma is not a primary tissue because it ...
In dicots, layer two of the corpus decides the attributes of the edge of the leaf. The corpus and tunica have a basic impact on the plant’s actual appearance as all plant cells are shaped from the meristems. Apical Meristems are found in two areas: the root and the stem. Some ...
The agricultural use of silica (SiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) has the potential to control insect pests while the safety and tritrophic effects on plants and beneficial natural enemies remains unknown. Here, we evaluate the effects of silica NPs on inse
