Paul Andersen explains the major plants structures. He starts with a brief discussion of monocot and dicot plants. He then describes the three main tissues in plants; dermal, ground and vascular. He also describes the plant cells...

Join the Amoeba Sisters in their updated plant structure and adaptations video as they discuss the terms vascular vs nonvascular and how they relate to plants before exploring some general categories of plants (bryophytes, seedless...

Paul Andersen shows you how to find stomata in a dicot and monocot leaf using finger nail polish and transparent tape. A microscope is required to actually see the stomata.

Why are leaves commonly flat, spongy and strikingly green? Discover the different parts of a leaf and their function. Biology - Plants - Learning Points. A leaf is made of many layers sandwiched between tough outer layers. Gases enter...

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...

Plants possess a wide variety of structures that enable them to accomplish amazing things. This engaging series of videos investigates structures common to most plants and describes how these features enable them to survive. Familiar,...

This video is a lecture presentation on plants in extreme environments. The speaker begins by discussing the resources plants need to survive, such as light, water, carbon dioxide, and mineral ions. The process of photosynthesis is...

This is an educational video that explains the concepts of transpiration and translocation in plants, while also exploring the transport system in plants. The video takes a closer look at the different features of plants, including root...

The video explains the process of transpiration in plants, which is the loss of water vapor from a plant through evaporation from the surfaces of the plant, mainly the lower surfaces of leaves. The video also explains the role of...

This nugget explains the characteristic features of Permanent Plant tissues, their types, location and functions.

This video is a tutorial on plant tissues, their structures, and functions. It starts with an overview of what tissues are and how they form groups of cells with similar structures and functions. The video then focuses on five key...

Transpiration is the evaporation of water from the aerial parts of a plant (so the leaves and stems). By water evaporating out of these parts - mostly the leaves, a suction pressure is created which draws water up through the plant. This...

Plant Structure and Function Set: 1. This clip examines the stomata of leaves. It discusses their structure, how they work and the important role stomata play in regulating the exchange of gases and water between the plant and...

This nugget describes the structure of stomata, types of stomata, transpiration and factors affecting rate of transpiration.

Plants make food through photosynthesis. Using their leaves, plants combine sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to make glucose and oxygen. A leaf is like a plant's food factory, collecting all of the components into one place so that...

Students will learn how the structures of plants such as roots, stems, and leaves enable them to live and grow. Real-life applications show how these plant structures are useful sources of food, building materials and medicine. Other...
