  2. Guard cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guard_cell

    Guard cells control gas exchange and ion exchange through opening and closing. K+ is one ion that flows both into and out of the cell, causing a positive charge to develop. Malate is one of the main anions used to counteract this positive charge, and it is moved through the AtALMT6 ion channel. [ 40 ]

  3. Cambium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambium

    A cambium (pl.: cambiums or cambia), in plants, is a tissue layer that provides partially undifferentiated cells for plant growth. It is found in the area between xylem and phloem. A cambium can also be defined as a cellular plant tissue from which phloem, xylem, or cork grows by division, resulting (in woody plants) in secondary thickening.

  4. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

  5. Plant tissue culture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_tissue_culture

    Plant tissue culture is a collection of techniques used to maintain or grow plant cells, tissues, or organs under sterile conditions on a nutrient culture medium of known composition. It is widely used to produce clones of a plant in a method known as micropropagation .

  6. Chloralkali process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloralkali_process

    The walls dividing the cells have gaps below the surface of the mercury layer. This allows mercury to flow between cells, while preventing the aqueous solutions from doing so. In the "outer" cell, chloride ions are oxidized at the anode, producing chlorine gas which bubbles out of the cell.

  7. Plant anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_anatomy

    Plant anatomy or phytotomy is the general term for the study of the internal structure of plants.Originally, it included plant morphology, the description of the physical form and external structure of plants, but since the mid-20th century, plant anatomy has been considered a separate field referring only to internal plant structure.

  9. Meristem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meristem

    In cell biology, the meristem is a structure composed of specialized tissue found in plants, consisting of stem cells, known as meristematic cells, which are undifferentiated cells capable of continuous cell division. These meristematic cells play a fundamental role in plant growth, regeneration, and acclimatization, as they serve as the source ...
