UP Board Class 11 Biology – Anatomy of Flowering Plants
The chapter “Anatomy of Flowering Plants” in UP Board Class 11 Biology focuses on the internal structure of angiosperms, helping students understand how plants function and adapt. It explains the tissues and tissue systems, including meristematic tissues (apical, intercalary, lateral) responsible for growth, and permanent tissues (simple: parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma; complex: xylem and phloem) that provide support, transport, and storage.
Students learn about the anatomy of root, stem, and leaf in dicot and monocot plants, including special features like secondary growth in dicots, vascular bundles, and stomatal structure. The chapter also covers anomalous secondary growth, types of vascular bundles, and modifications related to plant survival.
Understanding plant anatomy is essential for identifying plant adaptations, studying physiology, and preparing for advanced topics in botany. This chapter lays the foundation for taxonomy, plant physiology, and ecological studies in higher classes.
