Plants possess a wide variety of structures that enable them to accomplish amazing things. This engaging video investigates structures common to most plants and describes how these features enable them to survive. Familiar, everyday examples help students understand the means by which plants carry out their lives. Concepts and terminology include: meristematic tissue, ground tissue, cambium, xylem, epidermis, phloem, roots, cortex, herbaceous stem, stomates, pith, woody stem, terminal bud, guard cells, mesophyll, palisade, transpiration, and translocation.
"An excellent introduction to the topic of plant structure and function, this program immediately engages students with the idea that plants, like humans and other animals, have organs made up of tissues..."
