Midwest Botany of Embryophytes

Botany- a common name meaning the study of plant biology with categorizing of plants.
I am a P-bio major at Ohio University Athens, currently wanting to go into transgenetic plant DNA studies. However, I do find the plain old study of collecting pictures of native and non-native/invasive species in the midwest united states.

I focus on Embryophytes or bryophytes and tracheophytes. (land plants)

Meristems: aka embryonic tissue(the origin)

areas where the rapid new growth originates.

Types:

Apical:- root point(cap) and stem apex elongation.

these give rise to!(down arrow)

Primary Meristems.:- these cells undergo division before differentiation.(pro-cambium(forms the vascular cambium and it’s side tissues))(, ground cambium(makes pith and cortex filler cells))(, protoderm(makes the epidermis for the plant as well as leaf primordium; found also on top of apical meristem))

So, primary growth forms primary tissues forms primary plant body.”don’tchaknow”

Lateral:- increases girth of roots and stems and is what we call secondary growth. (vascular cambium)(cork cambium grows newer filler cells and inner dermis)(intercalary cambium grows nodes on plants)
