Batrachospermum :Origin ,strucutre ,Thallus organisation and reproduction

                                              Batrachospermum Occurrence:-   (1) Batrachospermum is fresh water alga.    (2) It is found in clear, cool, and running streams.   (3) Deepwater plants are dark violet or reddish in color. But the shallow-water species are olive green.   (4) The intensity of light changes the color of pigments.   (5) The thallus is attached to the substratum. Vegetative structure  (1) The thallus of an adult plant is soft, thick, filamentous.  (2) It is freely branched and gelatinous.   (3) The central axis is made up of a single row of large cells. Whorls of branches of limited growth        are developed on this axis.  (4) These branches are filamentous and dichotomously arranged.  (5) The main axis is corticated. It consists of a row of elongated cylindrical cells....

Structure and Function of Endoplasmic Reticulum

Endoplasmic reticulum  :-  The electron microscopic membrane bound system present in the cytoplasm is called endoplasmic reticulum It is reported by porter in 1945,it connects the nucleus to the one end and other end is connected by cell membrane. It has two parts :- (1)Smooth endoplamic reticulum (2) Rough endoplamic reticulum. ER Contains Cisternae,tubules abd vesicles Endoplasmic Reticulum Cisternae  :- These are long, flat and un-branched plates or lamellae arranged in parallel rows. (b)  Vesicles :- They are usually round or ovoid sacs. They often occur isolated in the cytoplasm. (c)  Tubules :- They are irregularly branched tube-like structures having a diameter of 50-100n. These are surrounded by this unit membrane of 50-60 thickness and their lumen is filled with the secretary products of the cell. Smooth endoplasmic  reticulum  :- The SER is smoothly surface ER but RER...

Pinus -External Morphology,Internal Structure and Reproduction

                             Pinus External morphology :- Root :-     The tree has a well developed tap root system . When the plant is growing on a shallow soil in the hills ,the lateral roots spread very wide to fix the plant firmly into the plant firmly into the   soil. Pinus Morphology Roots make association with fungi in the soil called mycorrhizae.it is kind of symbiotic association where the fungud does not affect the plant root bt provide soil nitrogen and phosphate and other minerals from root to the root . Stem :-   Stem is woodly and branched .the lower unbranched part of the stem is called Trunk  . (1)    Branch of limited growth (2)    Branch of unlimited growth . The branch is excurrent where the terminal bud or main stem shows more ...
