Root

The root is a geotropically growing axial organ of a plant. One of the roles of the root system is to provide anchoring for the plant body in the soil or on other surfaces. Water and mineral absorption and transport, food storage, and communication with other plants are among the other activities. Root is the […]

Role Of The Botanical Gardens

As the name suggests, a botanical garden can be described as a garden that is used for the conservation, collection and display of a variety of plants. These plants are labelled with their botanical names, and this method can be used to preserve a wide variety of endangered plant species. Most of these gardens can

Reproductive parts of a flower

Flowers are a plant’s reproductive organs. Calyx, corolla, androecium, and gynoecium are four types of whorls on the thalamus that makeup flower components. Androecium and gynoecium are reproductive organs, while calyx and corolla are accessory parts. Flowers are not only employed for reproduction, but they also provide food for insects and birds who feed on

Reproduction: Reproductive Structure of Flowers

Angiosperms are flowering plants that reproduce sexually. The flower is the main component of plant reproduction. It has both the male as well as the female gametes. Although some parts of the flower are sterile, they all aid in reproduction. We need to examine the functions and parts of each flower in order to understand how they reproduce.

Renin Angiotensin System

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is a collection of hormones that work together to manage inflammation and regulate blood pressure. It’s called a system because each component has an impact on the others, and all are required for the whole to function properly. The renin-angiotensin system, which works in conjunction with the kidneys to control blood

Region of Elongation

Along with the germination of seeds, root development continues. Vascular plants have an underground structure called roots. Roots provide support to plants and offer means of absorption of nutrients and other supplements and help in the growth of plants.  Cells are formed by repeated cell divisions. Root elongation leads to the expansion of new cells

Importance of Bryophytes

Bryophytes also play an important role in the environment: they colonise sterile soils, absorb nutrients and water, and slowly release them back into the ecosystem, helping to form soil for new plants to grow on. Still, there is a lot to learn about bryophytes, especially in the tropics, where they are less common and thus

Redifferentiation in Plants

An irreversible permanent increase in the size of an organ, its parts, or even a single cell can be classified as growth. Meristem cells, which are responsible for growth in plants, divide and self-perpetuate. Meristem cells can be found in several areas of the plant. Due to an orderly succession of development, a plant’s growth

Redifferentiation

Introduction After being dedifferentiated, a mature plant cell loses its capacity to divide. This is referred to as redifferentiation. The result of dedifferentiated cells/tissues that lose their capacity to divide is referred to as redifferentiated cells/tissues and the event is referred to as redifferentiation. However, plant growth and differentiation are open since, for example, the
