Use these Biology and Plant Anatomy videos entitled The Primary and Secondary Plant Body, Plant Cells and Tissues to study the anatomical structures of plants, and examine the tissues of roots, stems, and leaves.

Use these 6 online educational video titles to study the anatomical structures of a vast array of plants. Learn about the major cell and tissue types found in vascular plants. Examine the organization and products of the apical meristems...the external form...the tissues of roots, stems, and leaves...and the nature, position, and products of the secondary meristems.

Learning Objectives:

Identify pinnate, palmate, compound pinnate, compound palmate, peltate, and sessile leaves; describe three patterns of leaf attachment to the stem; and identify six types of buds.
Describe the function of a leaf's epidermis, mesophyll, vein, palisade parenchyma, and spongy parenchyma, and identify the blade, petiole, leaf base, and stipules of a leaf.
Contrast the functions of the apical and lateral meristems; discuss the functions of the vascular cambium and the cork cambium; and state the three layers of the plant cell wall.
Discuss the location and function of secondary growth in plants; explain how growth rings are formed; identify three patterns of bark; name the two major types of root systems.
Study the organization of vascular plant tissues into dermal, vascular, and fundamental tissue systems, and review the major types of cells that form the vascular plant body.
