PPT-Plants: Structure & Function

Plant Cell Plants are Eukaryotic Autotrophic have chloroplasts Multicellular Cell walls of cellulose BRIEF HISTORY OF PLANTS Theory many scientists believe that photosynthetic . Objectives of lecture. Know possible origin of plants. Understand Alternation of generations concept. Green algae as ancestors of land plants. Green algae as ancestors. Green algae are considered to be ancestors of land plants. The terminal end of an arteriole tapers toward the capillary junction to form a . single metarteriole. .. At the metarteriole-capillary junction, the distal most muscle cell forms the . . precapillary sphincter. Gustavo Caetano - . Anolles. 1. PowerPoint by Casey . Hanson. Protein Sequence, Structure, and Function | Gustavo Caetano - Anolles | 2015. Exercise. In this exercise we will be doing the following:. UNIFYING CONCEPTS IN ANIMAL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION. STRUCTURE FITS FUNCTION IN THE ANIMAL BODY. ANATOMY. DEF . . THE STUDY OF THE STRUCTURE OF AN ORGANISM. PHYSIOLOGY. DEF . . THE STUDY OF THE FUNCTIONS AN ORGANISM PERFORMS. Materials extracted from plants are used in about 50% of the medicines used in the western world.. Products from plants are often cheaper and safer than man made (synthetic) ones.. To identify which plants are useful, scientists study traditional folklore and observe their practices. Many of the chemicals withdrawn from plants have been used by natives for many years.. Roots. , Stems, and Leaves. Reproduction . in Flowering . Plants. Plant . Characteristics. Plants come in all sizes, from the tiny duckweed which grows to only about 10 mm in length, to the giant redwood which grows to about 100 m in height.. What is structure?. What is function?. The . structure. is the shape of each part of a living thing. . Function. . describes how the part . is used . or how it works.. Velcro, a road reflector, a video game joystick, and a submarine's ballast tanks all have structures inspired by nature.. Pamela Osborn. Overview . What . are ribozymes? . Background. Structure. Hairpin, Hammerhead, and . RNase. . P. Future applications. Function . & Role of ribozymes within the body. Mechanism: Role of metals in catalysis & . Part II: Proteins & Nucleic Acids. The FOUR Classes of Large Biomolecules. All living things are made up of four classes of large biological molecules: . Carbohydrates . Lipids. Protein. N. ucleic Acids. Plants= eukaryotic, . multicellular, . photosynthetic. . Origin of Land Plants?. Evidence that Green Algae are the ancestors. 1) DNA. 2) Ch a & b. 3) True starch inside chloroplasts. 4) Diverse life cycles & reproduction. FLORIDA PLANTS What is a native plant? Plants native to Florida are plants that were here before the arrival of the Europeans Plants native to this area of Florida have evolved mechanisms over the centuries that enable them to handle our climate.
