Plant Systems
Discover the anatomy and functions of plant support and transport systems, including roots, stems, and secondary growth, as well as the factors that affect transpiration and transportation of water and minerals to leaves.
Topics explored include root and stem anatomy of dicotyledonous plants, transpiration, plant wilting and guttation, uptake of water and minerals in the root.
