	Anatomy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anatomy (from the Greek anatome, from ana-temnein, to cut up), is the branch of biology that deals with the structure and organization of living things.
		Animal anatomy may include the study of the structure of different animals, when it is called comparative anatomy or animal morphology, or it may be limited to one animal only, in which case it is spoken of as special anatomy.
		From the morphological point of view, however, human anatomy is a scientific and fascinating study, having for its object the discovery of the causes which have brought about the existing structure of humans, and needing a knowledge of the allied sciences of embryology or developmental biology, phylogeny, and histology.

		Plant organs are composed of tissue, groups of cells that work together to perform a physiological or mechanical function.
		Plant tissues are divided into two major categories: meristematic tissues composed of actively dividing cells, and permanent tissues composed of mature and specialized cell types.
		A typical flowering seed plant (Angiosperm) is composed of a number of interrelated parts having different structures and functions, but with each part contributing to the unity of the plant as a whole.

		Nearly all cultivated plants are composed of a limited number of basic parts or organs; leaves, stems, buds and roots.
		Deciduous plants lose their leaves in autumn by forming an abscission zone at the base of the leaf.
		The innermost layer of the bark is actually the vascular tissue that carries the carbohydrates throughout the plant.

	Plant Anatomy Introduction
		Plants, in general, exhibit open growth, or continuous growth from their meristems of embryonic origin until they die.
		At all times the tips of plants are essentially embryonic, with active meristems, while other regions may be up to 1000's of years old.
		Herbaceous plants do not have such strong, woody parts which persist year after year, and are rarely as large as the woody plants.

	Plant Anatomy
		The plant uses the energy from the sun to split water molecules into their component parts: hydrogen and oxygen.
		The plant discards the oxygen and mixes the hydrogen with carbon dioxide from the air to produce glucose and other sugars for food.
		A tree is a relatively large woody plant ordinarily with a single upright stem, the trunk.

		You do not get seeds from parts of the plant other than the fruit (small plants produced from the leaves or inflorescence or other places are products of asexual reproduction and should be clones of their parent).
		Plants grown from seed tend to be somewhat different from the plant that produced the seeds.
		In most plants these are the parts which do the important job of photosynthesis (the process by which plants use energy from light to convert water and carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen).

		That is, while we stop growing once we have fully developed into adults, plants can continue to grow indefinitely, at least theoretically.

		Each plant organ is covered by a single layer of cells known as the dermal tissue.
		The thin sections of plant organs have been stained with a series of dyes (green, red, and purple) that are absorbed by structures containing particular chemicals.
		Sections of living plant tissues would typically not have any color except yellow or green in the chloroplasts (chlorophyll is a green pigment, carotene is a yellow pigment) or red colors in the vacuole (anthocyanin pigments found typically only in flower or fruit tissues).

	BSCI 124 Lecture Notes -- Plant Anatomy
		Unlike animals, the major organs of plants (roots, stems, and leaves) are all composed of the same three tissues (epidermis, vascular tissues, and ground tissues).
		Sugar diffuses from the mesophyll in the leaf to the phloem cells in the vascular bundles.
		This osmotic water flow generates a high hydraulic pressure that moves the dissolved sugar solution through the phloem conducting cells from the leaves to the rest of the plant where the sugar is unloaded by other companion cells.

	Anatomy of a Plant Closing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		In January 1990, company representatives told San Antonio workers that the Zarzamora Street plant had to be closed for the company to "stay competitive." Back in the mid-1970s the plant had made suit and sports jackets for Levi's under contract and in 1981 Levi's bought the plant.
		By the time the plant closed in 1990 workers were sewing 16,000 pairs of pants and 500 sports jackets a day.
		The Zarzamora plant closing was the largest in San Antonio's history and had a devastating impact on the community.
