Korper-Kappe Theory.The root apical meristem, or root apex, is a small region at the tip of a root in which all cells are capable of repeated division and from which all primary root tissues are derived. The root apical meristem is protected as it passes through the soil by an outer region of living parenchyma cells called the root cap.
The timing of cambial reactivation plays an important role in determination of the amount and quality of wood and the environmental adaptavity of trees.
Environmental factors, such as temperatures, influence the growth and development of trees.
Temperatures from late winter to early spring affect the physiological process that are involved in the initiation of cambial cell division and xylem differentiation in trees.
Cumulative elevated temperatures from late winter to early spring result in earlier initiation of cambial reactivation and xylem differentiation in tree stems and an extended growth period.
However, earlier cambial reactivation increases the risk for frost damage because the cold tolerance of cambium decreases after cambial reactivation.
A better understanding of the mechanisms that regulate wood formation in trees and the influence of environmental conditions on such mechanisms should help in efforts to improve and enhance the exploitation of wood for commercial applications and to prepare for climatic change.
Wood is the product of vascular cambium, and the formation of wood depends on the cambial activity of trees.
In temperate and cool zones, the vascular cambium of the stems of trees undergoes seasonal cycles of activity and dormancy, which are collectively known as annual periodicity.
This periodicity plays an important role in the formation of wood and reflects the environmental adaptivity of trees, for example their tolerance to cold in winter in cool and temperate zones.
The quantity and quality of wood depend on the division of cambial cells and the differentiation of cambial derivatives.
Cambial activity in trees is regulated by both internal factors, such as plant hormones, and environmental factors, such as, temperature, rainfall and photoperiod.
Temperature provides the appropriate physical conditions for the growth and development of trees in temperate and cool climates.
Timing of cambial reactivation is controlled by temperature, which influences both the quantity and quality of wood.
During the period from late winter to early spring, new cell plates are formed in the cambium and this springtime phenomenon is referred to as cambial reactivation.

In biology, tissue is a cellular organizational level between cells and a complete organ. A tissue is an ensemble of similar cells and their extracellular matrix from the same origin that together carry out a specific function. Broadly tissues can be classified into two major groups : Plant tissue and Animal tissue.
A plant tissue can be defined as a cell or a group of cells dividing, to give rise to large number of cell, which is collectively referred as tissues. They are structurally and functionally similar to these cells. Plants do have a higher level of structure called plant tissue systems. A plant tissue system can be defined as a functional unit, which connects all organs of a plant. Like animal tissue system, plant tissue system is also grouped into various tissues based on their functions.

In plant anatomy, tissues are categorized broadly into three tissue systems: the epidermis, the ground tissue, and the vascular tissue. Epidermis - Cells forming the outer surface of the leaves and of the young plant body. Vascular tissue - The primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

3. • A meristematic tissue consists of a group
of cells which remain in a continuous
state of division or they retain their
power of division.
The characteristic features of meristematic
tissue are as follows:
1. They are composed of immature cells
which are in a state of division and
growth.
2. Usually the intercellular spaces are not
found among these cells.
3. The cells may be rounded, oval or
polygonal in shape; they are always
living and thin-walled.
4. Each cell of meristematic tissue
possesses abundant cytoplasm and one
or more nuclei in it.
5. The vacuoles in the cells may be quite
small or altogether absent.
4. Beginning with the division of the oospore, the vascular plant
generally produces new cells and forms new organs until it dies.
In the beginning of the development of the plant embryo cell
division occurs throughout the young organism.
But as soon as the embryo develops and converts into an
independent plant the addition of new cells is gradually
restricted to certain parts of the plant body, while the other parts
of the remain concerned with activities other than growth.
This shows that the portions of embryonic tissue persists in the
plant throughout its life, and the mature plant is a composite of
adult and juvenile tissues.
These juvenile tissues are known as the meristems.
The presence of meristems remarkably differentiates the plant,
from the animal.
5. In the growth resulting from meristematic activity is
possible throughout the life of the organism, whereas in
animal body the multiplication of the cells mostly ceases
when the organism attains adult size and the number of
organs is fixed.
The term meristem (Greek meristos, meaning divisible)
emphasizes the cell-division activity characteristic of the
tissue which bears this name.
It is obvious that the synthesis of new living substance is a
fundamental part of the process of the formation of new
cells by division.
The living tissues other than the meristems may also
produce new cells, but the meristems carry on such activity
indefinitely, because they not only add cells to the plant
body, but also perpetuate themselves, that is, some of the
products of division in the meristems do not develop into
adult cells but remain meristematic.
6. The meristems usually occur at the apices of all main and
lateral shoots and roots and thus their number in a single
plant becomes quite large.
In addition, plants bearing secondary increase in thickness
possess extensive meristems, the vascular and cork cambia,
responsible for the secondary growth.
The combined activities of all these meristems give rise to a
complex and large plant body.
The primary growth, initiated in the apical meristems
expands the plant body and produces the reproductive
parts.
On the other hand, the cambia, aid in maintenance of the
expanding body by increasing the volume of the conducting
system and forming supporting and protecting cells.
7. Various systems of classifying meristems have been
proposed by many eminent workers which are based on the
characteristics such as stage of development, position in
plant body, origin, function and topography.
No system is exclusive and rigid.
8. 1. Meristems Based on Stage of Development:
Pro meristem or primordial meristem:
Pro meristem is the region of new growth in a plant body where the
foundation of new organs or parts of organs is initiated.
Sometimes, it is also called primordial meristem, meristem and
embryonic meristem.
From the view point of its structure, this region consists of the initials
and their immediate derivatives.
The cells of this region are isodiametric, thin walled, vacuolate, with
active cytoplasm and early stages of pits.
Prominent nuclei and inconspicuous intercellular spaces may be seen.
As soon as the cells of this region begin to change in size, shape, and
character of wall and cytoplasm, setting off the beginning of tissue
differentiation, they are no longer a part of typical meristem; they have
passed beyond that earliest stage.
9. 2. Meristems Based on
Origin of Initiating
Cells:
Primary and secondary meristems:
The meristems are classified as primary
and secondary, on the basis of type of
tissue in which origin occurs.
The primary meristems are those that
build up the primary part of the plant
and consist in part of pro meristem.
In primary meristems, pro meristem is
always the earliest stage.
The possession of pro meristem
continuously from a early embryonic
origin is characteristic of primary
meristems.
The main primary stems are the apices
of roots, stems, leaves and similar
appendages.
10. The secondary meristem appears later at a stage of development of an
organ of a plant body.
Secondary meristems always arise in permanent tissues and they are
always found lying lateral along the side of the stem and root.
Sometimes, some of the primary permanent tissues acquire the power
of division and become meristematic.
These tissues build up the secondary meristem.
Secondary meristems are so called because they arise as new meristems
in tissue which is not meristematic.
The most striking example of secondary meristem is phellogen or cork
cambium.
It is formed from mature cells cortical, epidermal or phloem cells.
The primary meristems build up the early and structurally and
functionally complete plant body.
The secondary meristems later add to that body forming
supplementary tissues that functionally replace the early formed tissues
or serve in protection and repair of wounded regions.
11. The cambium does not fall
definitely in either group
(primary and secondary).
It arises from apical
meristem of which it is late
and specialized stage.
However, the accessory
cambia are secondary.
The tissues formed by the
cambium are secondary,
whereas the primary
meristems form only
primary tissues.
12. As regards their
position in plant body,
the meristems may be
classified into three
groups:
i. Apical meristem,
ii. Intercalary meristem
and
iii. Lateral meristem.
13. (i) Apical Meristem:
The apical meristem lies at the apex
of the stem and the root of vascular
plants.
Very often they are also found at the
apices of the leaves, Due to the
activity of these meristems, the
organs increase in length.
The initiation of growth takes place
by one or more cells situated at the
tip of the organ.
These cells always maintain their
individuality and position and are
called ‘apical cells’ or ‘apical
initials’.
Solitary apical cells occur in
pteridophytes, whereas in higher
vascular plants they occur in groups
which may be terminal or terminal
and sub-terminal in position.
14. (ii) Intercalary Meristems:
The intercalary meristems are merely
portions of apical meristems that have
become separated from the apex during
development by layers of more mature
or permanent tissues and left behind as
the apical meristem moves on in growth.
The intercalary meristems are inter-
nodal in their position.
In early stages, the internode is wholly
or partially meristematic, but later on
some of its part becomes mature more
rapidly than the rest and in the
internode a definite continuous sequence
of development is maintained.
The intercalary meristems are found
lying in between masses of permanent
tissues either at the leaf base or at the
base of internode.
15. Such meristems are commonly found in the
stems of grasses and other monocotyledonous
plants and horsetails, where they are basal.
Leaves of many monocotyledons (grasses) and
some other plants, such as Pinus, have basal
meristematic regions.
These meristematic regions are short living
and ultimately disappear; ultimately, they
become permanent tissues.
(iii) Lateral Meristems:
The lateral meristems are composed of such
initials which divide mainly in one plane
(periclinally) and increase the diameter of an
organ.
They add to the bulk of existing tissues or give
rise to new tissues.
These tissues are responsible for growth in
thickness of plant body.
The cambium and the cork cambium are the
examples of this type.
16.
17. 4. Meristems Based on Function:
As regards their function a system of classification of meristems
was proposed by Haberlandt in the end of nineteenth century.
He suggested that the primary meristem at the apex of the stem
and root is distinguished into three tissues — protoderm,
procambium and ground or fundamental meristem.
The protoderm is the outermost tissue which develops into
epidermis.
The procambium develops into primary vascular tissue.
It forms isolated strands of elongated cells very near to the
central region; in cross-section each procambium appears as a
small group of cells in the ground or fundamental meristem, but
in longitudinal section the cells appear to be long and pointed.
The ground or fundamental meristem develops into ground
tissue and pith; the cells of this region are large, thin walled,
living and isodiametric.
In later stages, they become differentiated into hypodermis,
cortex, endodermis, pericycle, pith rays and pith.
18. • Meristems and Permanent Tissues:
In active meristems there occurs a continuous separation
between cells that remain meristematic the initiating cells
and those that develop into the various tissue elements the
derivatives of the initiating cells.
During this process of developing the derivatives gradually
change physiologically and morphologically, and assume
more or less specialized characteristics.
In other words, the derivatives differentiate into the specific
elements of the various tissue-systems.
As the cells of vascular plants vary in their physiologic and
morphologic characteristics, they also vary in details of
differentiation.
Different types of cells attain different degrees of
differentiation as compared with their common
meristematic precursors.
19.
20. For example, various parenchyma cells diverge relatively little
from their meristematic precursors and retain the power of
division to a high degree.
On the other hand, such as sieve elements, fibres, tracheary
elements are more thoroughly modified and lose most, or all of
their former meristematic potentialities.
These variously differentiated cells are known as mature or
permanent in the sense that they have reached the degree of
specialization and physiological stability that normally
characterizes them as components of certain tissues of an adult
plant part.
During the differentiation of tissues from meristems the
derivatives of meristematic cells synthesize protoplasm, enlarge
and divide.
It is difficult to delimit the meristem proper from its recent
derivatives.
The development of meristematic derivatives into mature cells
also is gradual.
In other words, the differentiation is a continuous process.
