    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bast_fibre

    Bast fiber from oak trees forms the oldest preserved woven fabrics in the world. It was unearthed at the archeological site at Çatalhöyük in Turkey and dates to 8000-9000 years ago.

  3. Phloem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phloem

    In the embryo, root phloem develops independently in the upper hypocotyl, which lies between the embryonic root, and the cotyledon. [20] In an adult, the phloem originates, and grows outwards from, meristematic cells in the vascular cambium. Phloem is produced in phases. Primary phloem is laid down by the apical meristem and develops from the ...

  4. 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. The parent cells of the vascular cambium produce both xylem ...

  5. Ground tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_tissue

    This tissue system is present between the dermal tissue and forms the main bulk of the plant body. Parenchyma cells have thin primary walls and usually remain alive after they become mature. Parenchyma forms the "filler" tissue in the soft parts of plants, and is usually present in cortex , pericycle , pith , and medullary rays in primary stem ...

    Phloem I 5. Sclerenchyma 6. Cortex 7. Epidermis. In botany, a cortex is an outer layer of a stem or root in a vascular plant, lying below the epidermis but outside of the vascular bundles. [1] The cortex is composed mostly of large thin-walled parenchyma cells of the ground tissue system and shows little to no structural differentiation. [2]

    Huggins agrees, saying, "Both the white meat [from the turkey breast] and the dark meat from the turkey legs contain B vitamins and are an excellent source of iron, selenium, zinc and choline.

  8. Connective tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connective_tissue

    Blood and lymph are classed as specialized fluid connective tissues that do not contain fiber. [2] [3] All are immersed in the body water. The cells of connective tissue include fibroblasts, adipocytes, macrophages, mast cells and leukocytes. The term "connective tissue" (in German, Bindegewebe) was introduced in 1830 by Johannes Peter Müller ...

  9. Vascular cambium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_cambium

    The fascicular and interfascicular cambia thus join up to form a ring (in three dimensions, a tube) which separates the primary xylem and primary phloem, the cambium ring. The vascular cambium produces secondary xylem on the inside of the ring, and secondary phloem on the outside, pushing the primary xylem and phloem apart.
