  2. Phragmoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phragmoplast

    Towards the right: Phragmoplast enlarges in a donut-shape towards the outside of the cell, leaving behind mature cell plate in the center. The cell plate will transform into the new cell wall once cytokinesis is complete. The phragmoplast is a plant cell specific structure that forms during late cytokinesis.

  3. Cell plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_plate

    Indirect immunofluorescence microscopy localized phragmoplastin to the cell plate in dividing soybean root tip cells. Double labeling experiments demonstrated that, unlike phragmoplast microtubules which are concentrated on the periphery of the forming plate, PDL is located across the whole width of the newly formed cell plate.

  4. Growth medium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_medium

    An agar plate – an example of a bacterial growth medium*: Specifically, it is a streak plate; the orange lines and dots are formed by bacterial colonies.. A growth medium or culture medium is a solid, liquid, or semi-solid designed to support the growth of a population of microorganisms or cells via the process of cell proliferation [1] or small plants like the moss Physcomitrella patens. [2]

  5. Primary growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_growth

    In contrast, a growth process that involves thickening of stems takes place within lateral meristems that are located throughout the length of the stems. The lateral meristems of larger plants also extend into the roots. This thickening is secondary growth and is needed to give mechanical support and stability to the plant. [4]

  6. Epiphyseal plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphyseal_plate

    The epiphyseal plate, epiphysial plate, physis, or growth plate is a hyaline cartilage plate in the metaphysis at each end of a long bone.It is the part of a long bone where new bone growth takes place; that is, the whole bone is alive, with maintenance remodeling throughout its existing bone tissue, but the growth plate is the place where the long bone grows longer (adds length).

  7. Plant development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_development

    On top of the gradual growth of the plant, the image reveals the true meaning of phototropism and cell elongation, meaning the light energy from the sun is causing the growing plant to bend towards the light aka elongate. Plant growth and development are mediated by specific plant hormones and plant growth regulators (PGRs) (Ross et al. 1983). [10]

  8. Plasmodesma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasmodesma

    Callose is found in cell plates during the process of cytokinesis, but as this process reaches completion the levels of callose decrease. [ citation needed ] The only callose rich parts of the cell include the sections of the cell wall where plasmodesmata are present.

  9. Preprophase band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preprophase_band

    The preprophase band is a microtubule array found in plant cells that are about to undergo cell division and enter the preprophase stage of the plant cell cycle. Besides the phragmosome , it is the first microscopically visible sign that a plant cell is about to enter mitosis .
