In this lesson, we will learn how to describe the structure and function of specialized plant structures.

Students will be able to

describe the structures of specialized plant structures including the xylem, phloem, palisade mesophyll, spongy mesophyll, meristem cells, guard cells, stomata, and root hair cells,
explain how the xylem and phloem are adapted to their functions of transporting substances around the plant,
explain how the mesophyll cells, guard cells, and stomata are adapted for their functions in photosynthesis,
explain how root hair cells are adapted to take up water and minerals from the soil.
