  2. Cell plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_plate

    As the cell plate matures in the central part of the cell, the phragmoplast disassembles in this region and new elements are added on its outside. This process leads to a steady expansion of the phragmoplast and, concomitantly, to a continuous retargeting of Golgi-derived vesicles to the growing edge of the cell plate. Once the cell plate ...

  3. Phragmosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phragmosome

    The phragmosome is a sheet of cytoplasm forming in highly vacuolated plant cells in preparation for mitosis. [1] In contrast to animal cells, plant cells often contain large central vacuoles occupying up to 90% of the total cell volume and pushing the nucleus against the cell wall. In order for mitosis to occur, the nucleus has to move into the ...

  4. Phragmoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phragmoplast

    The cell plate will transform into the new cell wall once cytokinesis is complete. The phragmoplast is a plant cell specific structure that forms during late cytokinesis . It serves as a scaffold for cell plate assembly and subsequent formation of a new cell wall separating the two daughter cells.

  5. Neural plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_plate

    While the cells that remain as the neural tube form the brain and spinal cord, the other cells that were part of the neural plate migrate away from the tube as neural crest cells. After an epithelial–mesenchymal transition, these cells form the autonomic nervous system and certain cells of the peripheral nervous system. [7]

  6. Neurulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurulation

    The neural plate folds in upon itself to form the neural tube, which will later differentiate into the spinal cord and the brain, eventually forming the central nervous system. [2] Computer simulations found that cell wedging and differential proliferation are sufficient for mammalian neurulation. [3]

  7. Engraving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engraving

    Other terms often used for printed engravings are copper engraving, copper-plate engraving or line engraving. Steel engraving is the same technique, on steel or steel-faced plates, and was mostly used for banknotes, illustrations for books, magazines and reproductive prints, letterheads and similar uses from about 1790 to the early 20th century, when the technique became less popular, except ...

  8. Cytokinesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinesis

    Due to the presence of a cell wall, cytokinesis in plant cells is significantly different from that in animal cells, Rather than forming a contractile ring, plant cells construct a cell plate in the middle of the cell. The stages of cell plate formation include (1) creation of the phragmoplast, an array of microtubules that guides and supports ...

  9. Tissue (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tissue_(biology)

    Phloem is an equally important plant tissue as it also is part of the 'plumbing system' of a plant. Primarily, phloem carries dissolved food substances throughout the plant. This conduction system is composed of sieve-tube member and companion cells, that are without secondary walls.
