Biology B2: Plant Cell Organisation

?
What are the tissues involved with plants?
Epidermal Tissues, Palisafe Mesophyll Tissues, Spongy Mesophyll Tissues, Meristem Tissues
1 of 9
What does the epidermal tissue do?
It is has a waxy layer that reduces water loss to evaporation
2 of 9
What does the upper epidermis do?
It is transparent so that light can pass through to the palisade layer
3 of 9
What does the palisade layer do?
It contains a lot of chloroplast that allows for the plant to photosynthesise
4 of 9
What does the lower epidermis do?
It allows for efficient gas exchange and means CO2 to diffuse directly into the leaf
5 of 9
What does the Epidermal tissue do?
This covers the whole plant
6 of 9
What does the Palisade Mesophyll tissue do?
This is where the photosynthesis in the plant
7 of 9
What does the Spongy Mesophyll tissue do?
Contains big air spaces to allow gases to diffuse in and out of cells
8 of 9
What does the Meristem Tissue do?
This is found at the growing tips of roots and is able to differentiate into lots of different plant cells
