Tracheophytes (Vascular plants) - 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..

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..

Coordination in Plants - In case of plants, growth and development is in a coordinated manner. The higher plants do not show locomotion. However, locomotion is seen in structures like sperm cells of ferns and mosses that swim towards the egg. The other moveme..

Tissue Systems in the Plant Body - 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..

Characteristics of Growth in Plants - 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 th..
