Unit 2: Organs & Cells

§2 The organs of plants

What organs do plants have?

Roots

Take up water and minerals

Anchors a plant into the ground

Stores food reserves

Are divided in categories:

- Large central taproot

- Smaller lateral roots

- Tiny roothairs

Root system (tree)

Root system (tulip)

Taproot and lateral roots

Roothairs

Stems

Gives a plant its rigidity

Transports substances

Rigidity can be taken from presence of wood or from water

Woody plants

Herbaceous plants

Make §2.2

Assignment 1, 2, 6, 8

Name 2 functions of roots

Which part of the root system is used for taking up water and minerals?

1. Roothairs
2. Lateral roots
3. Taproots

Where do plants get their rigidity from (2 answers!)

Today

Leaves

Vascular system

What is the function of leaves?

Leaves

Carry out photosynthesis

Veins transport water and give the leaf rigidity

Vascular system

Used for transporting water and nutrients through the plant

Grouped together in a vascular bundle

All vessels in a plant together = vascular system
