How many tissue systems make up the body of a flowering plant?

  1. Three tissue systems
  2. Four tissue systems
  3. Five tissue systems
  4. Seven tissue systems
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Three tissue systems

1. The tissues of a plant are grouped by where they sit and what they do. 2. The groups are the epidermal, the ground or fundamental, and the vascular or conducting system. 3. So there are three tissue systems in all. _Source: syllabus Biology, Ch 6 'Anatomy of Flowering Plants'_

How many cell layers thick is the epidermis usually?

  1. Two layers
  2. One layer
  3. Six layers
  4. Ten layers
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. One layer

1. The epidermis is a continuous protective covering, not a bulky zone. 2. Its cells are compactly arranged in a single sheet. 3. So the epidermis is usually single layered. _Source: syllabus Biology, Ch 6 'Anatomy of Flowering Plants'_

The epidermis is often covered on the outside by a waxy thick layer called what?

  1. Waxy suberin
  2. Thick pectin
  3. Thin cuticle
  4. Soft mesophyll
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Thin cuticle

1. The outer surface needs protection against water loss. 2. A waxy thick layer is laid down over the epidermal cells. 3. That layer is called the cuticle. _Source: syllabus Biology, Ch 6 'Anatomy of Flowering Plants'_
