This Bristlecone Pine Location (hidden) is the oldest living tree, estimated to be about 5000 years old.
There are a few common traits in plants Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
How do plants get food/energy? Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
They use photosynthesis. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
They use photosynthesis. Solar energy is used to create sugars. CO 2 + H 2 O + Sunlight O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6 Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Angiosperms The flowering plants
Angiosperm: Produce flowers and seeds enclosed in a fruit /ovary.
They have become very successful. 96% of all complex plant species. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Angiosperms share a set of common body systems.

Root Hairs: Hairlike extensions of root to absorb water and nutrients. Very delicate (damaged when transplanted). Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Water keeps plants rigid and not wilted Water fills cells an keeps pressure high. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Important note: Plants get the molecules they need chiefly from water and the air. Not the soil.
Hydroponics: The process of growing plants in sand, gravel, or liquid, with added nutrients but without soil.

Dermal tissue: Outside layer of plant, protects, interacts with outside. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Ground Tissue: Below dermal tissue, stores energy, photosynthesis occurs here. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Vascular Tissue: Tubes that water and minerals move through. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Vascular tissue consists of two tubes - Xylem and Phloem. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Vascular system: The vessels and tissue that carry fluids through the body of the plant. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Xylem: (Zi-lem). Carries water throughout the plant. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Water travels up the tree from roots to leaves. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Phloem: (Flow-em) Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Tubes in the plant that food (sugar) moves through. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Activity! Watching water travel up xylem. Cut a piece of celery at the stalk. Place the celery cross section into a container of colored water. Wait 24 hours Record your findings with a visual. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Explanation: Water will travel up the celery through the xylem. The water molecules climb up the small tubes because of adhesion, called capillary action. Copyright 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
