Graphic: http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/biologypage s/p/planttissues.html Tissues and Functions Epidermis (Protective): clear covering outermost part of plant protects plant from loss of water to air allows gas entry and exit allows roots to absorb water 4
Tissues and Functions Parenchyma: Found in leaves Either contain chlorophyll for photosynthesis or store food Collenchyma: Found in leaves Support leaf or stem 5
Tissues and Functions Sclerenchyma Made of either fiber or sclerid Fibrous: have a secondary cell wall and usually means the cells are dead give flexibility and support Sclerid: more pronounced secondary wall and provide hardness coverings such as nut shells (coconuts, pecans..) 6
Tissues and Functions Endodermis: One layer thick Found in root system Direct water and minerals from soil to controlling plant tissue Graphic: http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/b iologypages/r/roots.html 7
Tissues and Functions Primary Xylem: Combination of 4 cell types Vessel elements Tracheids Fibers Parenchyma cells All die except parenchyma when they mature Responsible for water transport in plant, vertical and horizontal movement Graphic: http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/b iologypages/r/roots.html 8
Primary Phloem Tissues and Functions Four cell types Sieve tube Companion cells Fiber cells Parenchyma cells Storage and lateral transport of food materials Graphic: http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/b iologypages/r/roots.html 9
Graphic: www.eng.auburn.edu/~wfgale/usda_couse /section0_images_2/syle Vascular Cambium: Between xylem and phloem Provides new cells to xylem and phloem protects plant from loss of water to air Cork Cambium: Outside of phloem Prevents water loss from the interior of plant Protects interior from environmental extremes Example: tree bark 10
Goal: Cellular Respiration Convert carbon-containing compounds into energy for life processes Carried out in the mitochondria Two Types: 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + Light Energy = C 6 H 12 O6 + 6O 2 Aerobic: uses oxygen as electron acceptor Anaerobic: uses other compounds for cellular respirtaion Both types start with glycolysis 11
Glycolysis Occurs in the cytoplasm Takes a molecule of glucose (6 carbon sugar molecule) Converts it to pyruvic acid Changes in molecules happen because of enzymatic activity Enzymes: protein molecules that facilitate reactions Involves energy (use, production ) 12
Anaerobic Respiration Electron acceptor is NOT oxygen. AKA FERMENTATION Two types of fermentation: lactic acid and alcoholic 13
Aerobic Respiration Majority of organisms respire aerobically Terminal electron acceptor is oxygen Consists of 2 processes: Kreb s (aka Citric Acid) Cycle Electron transport chain Kreb s Cycle: produces CO 2 and H 2 O Electron Transport transports electrons!!! From high energy compounds to lower energy compounds Final receptor is oxygen molecules 14
Respiration Aerobic respiration is more efficient at producing energy for the plant Some organisms (known as facultative anaerobes or aerobes) can do either kind of respiration Example: yeast With oxygen, use citric cycle and et to produce their energy Without oxygen, use alcoholic fermentation produce ethyl alcohol 15
Photosynthesis Heterotrophs: consume their energy Autotrophs: produce their own food Plants are autotrophs Use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to form carbohydrates and oxygen 16
Photosynthesis Light Reactions Photosystem I: absorbs sunlight by chlorophyll molecule Photosystem II: converts two water molecules into electrons, protons, one water molecule and ½ oxygen molecule. Electron transfer releases energy Oxygen is either used in the cycle or given off through respiration 17
0.5 Visible Near Infrared Reflectance (%) 0.25 Measure of living plant cell s ability to reflect infrared light 0.00 Photosynthetic Plant Potential Reflectance 450 500 550 600 650 700 750 800 850 900 950 1000 1050 Wavelength (nm) 18
Dark Reactions Photosynthesis Do not require light AKA carbon fixation reactions Carbon from CO 2 is used to make sugars like glucose Requires light reaction products (NADPH) and CO 2 19
Requries Photosynthesis light for Light Reactions Water for electron and proton source Proper temperature for efficiency 20
