  2. Seedling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seedling

    A seedling is a young sporophyte developing out of a plant embryo from a seed. Seedling development starts with germination of the seed. A typical young seedling consists of three main parts: the radicle (embryonic root), the hypocotyl (embryonic shoot), and the cotyledons (seed leaves). The two classes of flowering plants (angiosperms) are ...

  3. Plant anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_anatomy

    Chloroplasts in leaf cells of the moss Mnium stellare. 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.

  4. Glossary of plant morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_plant_morphology

    Plant habit can also refer to whether the plant possesses any specialised systems for the storage of carbohydrates or water, allowing the plant to renew its growth after an unfavourable period. Where the amount of water stored is relatively high, the plant is referred to as a succulent. Such specialised plant parts may arise from the stems or ...

  5. Plant morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_morphology

    Plant morphology. Phytomorphology is the study of the physical form and external structure of plants. [1] This is usually considered distinct from plant anatomy, [1] which is the study of the internal structure of plants, especially at the microscopic level. [2] Plant morphology is useful in the visual identification of plants.

Leaves are collectively called foliage, as in "autumn foliage", [2][3] while the leaves, stem, flower, and fruit collectively form the shoot system. [4]

  7. Radicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radicle

    In botany, the radicle is the first part of a seedling (a growing plant embryo) to emerge from the seed during the process of germination. [1] The radicle is the embryonic root of the plant, and grows downward in the soil (the shoot emerges from the plumule). Above the radicle is the embryonic stem or hypocotyl, supporting the cotyledon (s). [2]

  8. Plant development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_development

    Plant development. Important structures in plant development are buds, shoots, roots, leaves, and flowers; plants produce these tissues and structures throughout their life from meristems [1] located at the tips of organs, or between mature tissues. Thus, a living plant always has embryonic tissues. By contrast, an animal embryo will very early ...

  9. Epidermis (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidermis_(botany)

    The epidermis (from the Greek ἐπιδερμίς, meaning "over-skin") is a single layer of cells that covers the leaves, flowers, roots and stems of plants. It forms a boundary between the plant and the external environment. The epidermis serves several functions: it protects against water loss, regulates gas exchange, secretes metabolic ...
