  • In this video we cover how plants are organised, and then take a closer look at the leaf. We consider the different parts of a leaf and how it is adapted for its functions.
    We re-uploaded this video as the original had some unedited footage left in it. Sorry!

      1.transports water and minerals through plants
      2. transports food
      3. a waxy waterproof layer that surrounds the outer part of the eperdermis to prevent waterloss.

      1. transports water into the leaf
      2. transports glucose out of leaf (into plant)
      3. the waxy cuticle is thin layer on the upper epidermis of the leaf that is made up of lipids and fats. it reduces the loss of water molecules.
      4. when the water concentration is high in the leaf, the guard cells becomes turgid, and it opens. when water concentration is lower in the leaf, the guard cells become flaccid, and it closes.
      5. stem cells that allow the plant to grow. they are located in at the tips of the stems and roots and shoots of the plant

    • @Ricedigga14

      1. Water from the soil into the leaf
      2. Glucose from the leaf leaf the rest of the body
      3. A small layer that surrounds the upper epidermis that is water proof and prevents water loss
      4. When there is more water in the leaf, the stoma will open, when there is less, it will close to conserve the water. It is also closed at night when photosynthesis doesn't occur and CO2 isn't needed.
      5. Cells located on the tip of roots and stems that allow the plant to grow

    I know it feels like a drag right now, but make sure to knuckle down and consolidate this info, and hopefully you won't forget like I did. But, you're never too old to learn!
    Best of luck to any of y'all going through your GCSEs!

    Leaf: Leaves are where photosynthesis takes place, and it requires Carbon dioxide & water. The water comes from soil through the roots and xylem. List of components in the leaf:
    Lower epidermis: first level in which carbon dioxide diffuses. Stomata & cell guard are here.
    Stomata: it allows carbon dioxide to enter the leaf and oxygen to leave.
    Cell guard: controls when the stomata opens and when it closes. If there's a lot of water in the plant cell guards will open more and allow more carbon dioxide to enter. They close at night time when photosynthesis isn't taking place.
    Spongy mesophyll: a level in which carbon dioxide goes through and contains a lot of air gaps between cells so that the gas can diffuse easily into the next level.
    Palisade mesophyll: where photosynthesis occurs, since the palisade cells are full of chloroplasts.
    Upper epidermis: the last level, very transparent so that light can pass through to get to the chloroplasts in the palisade cells.
    Phloem: carries the sugar molecules to the rest of the plant after photosynthesis.
    Xylem: brings water up from the roots for the palisade cells to do photosynthesis.

    For anyone that needs to learn this for a test or somein here very usefull
    the leaf is a plant organ
    tissues in leaf;
    | upper epidermis -- protectes the surface of the leaf
    Transparant allows light to pass through for potysnthesis
    Waxy cuticle covers this, it's an oily material reduces evaporation/ prevents the leaf from drying out
    | lower epidermis -- contains stomata
    stomata allows carbon dioxiede to enter the leaf and oxygen to leave
    controls the amount water vapour that can pass out the leaf
    on the sides of the stomata you can find gaurd cells
    | palisde mesophyll -- contains palise cells these are packed with chloroplast
    chloropast contains clorophtyll which absorbs light need for photosynthesis
    | Spongy mesophyll -- these have alot of airspace that allows co2 that diffuse from the stomatathrough the spongy mesopyll
    to get to the paslise cells Oxygen dose the opposite and comes from the palisde cells to the spngy meospyll then to the stomata
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Xylem -- transports water from roots to the stem and leaves. some water is then used for photosynthesis
    also transprts disolved mineral ions likes magnesum used to make chlorophyll
    | Phloem -- trasnports disolved sugars from leaves to the rest of plant the sugars are produced my photoysnynthsis
    sugars can be used for lika glucose used for respiration

      oh okay. i once got a question in my mocks about that, but i believe it was just asking me about osmosis? And how having a higher concentration of ions in a cell would mean that guard cells would become turgid because of the lack of water, so stomata would close. This is what i think 😂

    • @Cognitoedu
      @Cognitoedu  5 років тому +3

      That would make sense, as a general principle water will flow to areas with higher concentrations of ions by osmosis. The exams often test general principles in weird settings, but they'll give you any extra information you need in the question :)
