BIOL 360 Introduction to Cellular Anatomy Lecture M-W-F 9:30-10:20 Lab section A: T 9:30-12:20 Lab section B: W 12:30-3:20
You will learn to recognize and describe cells, tissue and organs; and to understand the colors, textures and architecture as clues to the function of the organs. This is a great introduction that integrates cellular anatomy, physiology, genetics and development in plants and animals.
Takato Imaizumi Office: HCK307 E-mail: takato@uw.edu Use GoPost (Catalyst) for course-related questions. Class expectations: Note-taking is expected. Read assigned pages before you come to class. PowerPoint slides will be posted to the website after lecture, so you can review the images shown in class. Class will be screencast, another opportunity to review the lectures. Participation in class is expected, so watching the screencast will not substitute for coming to class.

To learn about plants, we need to change our pace and our perspective.
In this class we will learn some of the answers to these questions. What are plants? How do plants grow? How do plants drink? How do plants get food? How do plants cope with environmental challenges? Can plants see and move? How do plants fight against pathogens and predators? How do plants reproduce?
Why study plants? Plants are unique in that they use energy from sunlight along with other chemical elements for growth. photosynthesis This process (called _____________________) provides the worlds food and energy supply. Our life completely depends on plants. From plants, we get: Food ____________ Plants: autotroph Oxygen ____________ self-feeding ____________ Clothing (cotton fiber) Us: heterotroph Medicine, perfume, cosmetics (secondary metabolites) ____________ Wood (materials for furniture and house) Plants, just like us: have genes, and are made of cells, tissues and organs. respire and use energy to grow and reproduce. possess transport systems and hormones. can move (though grounded). can reproduce sexually. possess defense mechanisms to fight off pathogens (virus, bacteria, and fungi) and herbivores.
In this weeks lab You will examine representatives from four major plants groups. Aim: learn plant diversity dichotomous branching Non-vascular plants Seedless vascular plants (mosses, liverworts) (ferns, lycophytes)
Angiosperms Monocots
ovule
Eudicots
ovary
Plant structures shoot Plant structures can be divided into two main systems:__________ and root __________ . Both systems are necessary for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis reaction: glucose 6 CO2 + 12 H2O + light energy C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O Cuticles waxes Prevent water loss Block pathogens light CO2 Sugar O2, H2O CO2 H2O Nutrients (K, N, P) To exchange gases
O2, H2O
Question #2 Plants that have very thin cuticles will suffer growing most PINK: in rainy Seattle BLUE: in hot Tucson YELLOW: in hot New Orleans
Crassula ovata
Important characteristics of plants: Plant growth and development are changeable or plastic, depending on the environmental conditions. Lakecress (Neobeckia aquatica)
Phenotypic plasticity
Plant growth and development are changeable or plastic, depending on the environmental conditions.
Light energy
Low
Question #3 Many plants have stomata on both the upper and lower sides of leaves. Do you think they have more stomata on one of the sides (which one?) or are they the same?
PINK: about the same number on both sides BLUE: more on the lower side YELLOW: more on the upper side
Marram grass
Sun or shade?
Sponge mesophyll
Gas exchange
