  2. Phragmoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phragmoplast

    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 . It serves as a scaffold for cell plate assembly and subsequent formation of a new cell wall separating the two daughter cells.

  3. Sclereid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sclereid

    Although sclereids are variable in shape, the cells are generally isodiametric, prosenchymatic, forked, or elaborately branched. They can be grouped into bundles, can form complete tubes located at the periphery, or can occur as single cells or small groups of cells within parenchyma tissues. An isolated sclereid cell is known as an idioblast.

  4. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

  6. Endomembrane system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endomembrane_system

    In plant cells, vacuoles cover anywhere from 30% to 90% of the total cell volume. [32] Most mature plant cells contain one large central vacuole encompassed by a membrane called the tonoplast. Vacuoles of plant cells act as storage compartments for the nutrients and waste of a cell. The solution that these molecules are stored in is called the ...

  7. Sporophyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sporophyte

    The oocytes were fertilized in the archegonia by free-swimming flagellate sperm produced by windborne miniaturized male gametophytes in the form of pre-pollen. The resulting zygote developed into the next sporophyte generation while still retained within the pre- ovule , the single large female meiospore or megaspore contained in the modified ...

  8. Cell plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_plate

    Confocal visualization of phragmoplasts by double labeling immunofluorescence microscopy. Our current understanding of various mechanisms involved in budding-off of Golgi vesicles, delivery and fusion of vesicles to initiate plant cell plate during cytokinesis and the synthesis of polysaccharides at the forming cell plate is very limited [1] (Figure 1).

  9. Casparian strip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casparian_strip

    The cytoplasm of the endodermal cell is firmly attached to the Casparian strip so that it does not readily separate from the strip when the cells are subjected to contraction of the protoplasts. At the root, the Casparian strip is embedded within the cell wall of endodermal cells in the non-growing region of the root behind the root tip. [10]
