  2. Plant Morphology • Flowers • Stem • Leaves • Fruits • Roots

  3. Plant Morphology - Roots • Functions • Absorb water & minerals • Anchor plant

  4. Plant Morphology - Roots • Root Systems • Fibrous • No main root • Fast absorption of surface water • Holds soil – prevention of erosion

  5. Plant Morphology - Roots • Root Systems • Tap • 1 main root • Smaller secondary roots • Strong anchorage • Absorbs deep water

  6. Plant Morphology - Roots • Modified Roots • Prop roots • Support

  7. Plant Morphology - Roots • Modified Roots • Climbing • Support

  8. Plant Morphology - Roots • Modified Roots • Aquatic

  9. Plant Morphology - Roots • Modified Roots • Food & water storage

  10. Plant Morphology - Stems • Herbaceous Plant

  11. Plant Morphology - Stems • Woody Stem • Terminal bud • Axillary bud • Lenticels • Leaf scar • Terminal bud scar

  12. Plant Morphology - Stems • Woody Stem

  13. Plant Morphology - Stems • Modified Stems • Thorns • Protection

  14. Plant Morphology - Stems • Modified Stems • Tuber • Storage

  15. Plant Morphology - Stems • Modified Stems • Stolon • Reproduction

  16. Plant Morphology - Stems • Modified Stems • Corm • Storage

  17. Plant Morphology - Stems • Modified Stems • Tendrils • Support • Climbing
