Chloroplasts in leaf cells of the moss Mnium stellare. Plant anatomy or phytotomy is the general term for the study of the internal structure of plants.Originally, it included plant morphology, the description of the physical form and external structure of plants, but since the mid-20th century, plant anatomy has been considered a separate field referring only to internal plant structure.

Phytomorphology is the study of the physical form and external structure of plants. [1] This is usually considered distinct from plant anatomy, [1] which is the study of the internal structure of plants, especially at the microscopic level. [2]
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 ...
Plants are the eukaryotes that form the kingdom Plantae; they are predominantly photosynthetic.This means that they obtain their energy from sunlight, using chloroplasts derived from endosymbiosis with cyanobacteria to produce sugars from carbon dioxide and water, using the green pigment chlorophyll.
A flower, also known as a bloom or blossom, [1] is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants (plants of the division Angiospermae).Flowers consist of a combination of vegetative organs – sepals that enclose and protect the developing flower.
Vascular plants (from Latin vasculum 'duct'), also called tracheophytes (UK: / ˈ t r æ k iː ə ˌ f aɪ t s /, [5] US: / ˈ t r eɪ k iː ə ˌ f aɪ t s /) [6] or collectively tracheophyta (/ ˌ t r eɪ k iː ˈ ɒ f ɪ t ə /; [7] [8] [9] from Ancient Greek τραχεῖα ἀρτηρία (trakheîa artēría) 'windpipe' and φυτά (phutá) 'plants'), [9] are plants that have lignified ...
Ascocarp of Sarcoscypha austriaca. The sporocarp (also known as fruiting body, fruit body or fruitbody) of fungi is a multicellular structure on which spore-producing structures, such as basidia or asci, are borne.
