See Fig. 30.12

Monocot (e.g., corn) seedlings each have
1 cotyledon (seed leaf);
in monocots the cotyledon often
remains within the confines of the seed

Organ systemsof flowering plants
When a cell divides, the daughter cells grow…
and they may differentiate (specialize),depending especiallyon where they are located during development
See Fig. 35.2
![Page 31: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Differentiated cells contribute to 3 tissue systems
Dermal tissue (epidermis)
Generally a single cell layer that covers the plant
Absorption in root system
Water retention in shoot system, aided by waxy cuticle
See Fig. 35.8
![Page 32: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

walls that lack lignin• Alive at maturity• Grouped into strands or
cylinders to aid support without constricting growth

Secondary growth in stems
Primary growth at a branch tip lays down apical and axillary meristems for further lengthening, as well as a lateral meristem: the vascular cambium
See Fig. 35.18
![Page 63: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Secondary growth in stems
The vascular cambium produces secondary xylem to the inside and secondary phloem to the outside
See Fig. 35.18
![Page 64: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Secondary growth in stems
A second lateral meristem develops from the cortex: the cork cambium
Cork cambium produces cork cells that replace the epidermis
See Fig. 35.18
![Page 65: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Secondary growth in stems
As the stem continues to expand its girth, the tissues outside the cork cambium rupture and slough off
See Fig. 35.18
![Page 66: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Secondary growth in stems
As the stem continues to expand its girth, the cork cambium reforms in deeper layers of cortex tissue, and then in secondary phloem when the primary cortex is gone
See Fig. 35.18
![Page 67: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)

![Page 70: Chapter 35 Plant Structure, Growth & Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052510/56649ddd5503460f94ad6478/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Why do trees
have rings?

Growth – increase in mass by cell division and cell expansion
Differentiation – specialization
Development – all the changes that progressively produce an organism’s body (growth, differentiation, etc.)
Morphogenesis – the development of body form and organization

If all cells of a body contain the same set of genes, how do they
differentiate, and how does morphogenesis occur?
Differential expression of genes owing to differences in the environment each cell
experiences

If all cells of a body contain the same set of genes, how do they
differentiate, and how does morphogenesis occur?
For example, positional information determines whether the cells produced
by an apical meristem become protoderm, ground meristem, or
procambium

If all cells of a body contain the same set of genes, how do they
differentiate, and how does morphogenesis occur?
Every step in development requires input from both genes and the
environment!
