Bruce Yeung 25-11-2012 Biology Lab Comparing and Contrasting Monocots and Dicots Question: In this Investigation‚ live plant specimens of flowering plants would be used to classify plants as monocots or dicots. Hypothesis: Monocots have one embryonic seed leave while Dicots have two. Monocots have one cotyledon in seed while dicots have two. Xylems and Phloem are in circular shape in dicots‚ while monocots’ are scattered. Monocots have the multiples

part of a plant‚ which is a hollow tube with spiral thickening of lignin around the wall giving strength‚ which is continuous throughout the whole plant. The difference between the Xylem cell and other cells is that the Xylem is dead and has no cytoplasm. The Xylem is responsible for transporting water and certain nutrients form root to plant. Phloem carries soluble organic material i.e. food for the plant. The top of the plant is in the light‚ conducting photosynthesis and helping the plant reproduce

Plants have two separate transport systems. A network of xylem vessels transports water and mineral ions from the roots to all other parts of the plant. Phloem tubes transport food made in the leaves to all other parts of the plant. Neither of these systems has a pump‚ this is because they are not as active as animals and do not need such rapid supplies of food. Neither xylem nor phloem transports oxygen as oxygen gets to a plants cell by diffusion. Both stems and roots contain xylem vessels and

ROOTS * is an organ of a plant that typically lies below the surface of the soil. * a part of a plant body that bears no leaves‚ and therefore also lacks of nodes. * is the beginning of the vascular system pipeline that moves water and minerals from the soil up to the leaves and fruits. FUNCTIONS OF ROOTS: * Underground (usually) * Anchor the plant in the soil * Absorb water and nutrients * Conduct water and nutrients * Food Storage ROOT SYSTEM: 1. Tap root system
