Tracheophytes include the true land plants or vascular plants. The adult plant body is a sporophyte and shows definite root, stem and leaves. Vascular tissues xylem and phloem are present for the translocation of water and food respectively. G..

The vascular tissue system is a derivative of procambium. It is represented by the conducting tissues-xylem and phloem. These vascular tissues occur in the form of strands extending from one end of the plant body to another. These strands are known as vascular..

As mentioned earlier, the transport in higher plants is with the help of the vascular system. Thus, these plants are also called the vascular plants..

A section taken through any region of a typical plant body shows the presence of three tissue systems, namely Epidermal tissue system Ground tissue system and Vascular tissue syst..

Growth in plants occurs by cell division and cell enlargement, followed by cell differentiation. Growth in plants is generally limited to regions of growing points known as meristems . The two important growing points present in the root apex and stem apex are called apical meri..

Summary - An angiosperm plant body is composed of two basic types of tissues namely meristematic and permanent tissues. Meristematic tissue is formed by undifferentiated, embryonic cells called meristematic cells. Meristematic cells are compactly arranged. They have thin cell wall abundan..

The plant body is not differentiated into stem, root and leaves but is in the form of an undivided thallus. Vascular tissues are absent. The reproductive organs are single-celled and there is no embryo formation after fertilization. This division includes three sub-divi..

Angiosperms represent the most advanced group of vascular plants. They are commonly called 'Flowering plants'. They exceed all other major groups of living plants in number and diversit..
