5 Organs of a Tree
2
Young plant parts, recently formed by the shoot apical meristem, located at the tip of a shoot
Primordia
3
Elongation of shoots and roots
Primary Growth
4

Secondary Growth
5
An unexpanded shoot or flower, may be: active, dormant or latent
Buds
6
A bud held in dormancy for more than one year by horomones originated from the terminal bud. Located just below the barks surface.

7
A cylinder of meristematic tissue in woody plants that adds layers of secondary vascular tissue called secondary xylem(wood) and secondary phloem. Also an extermly active area in cell division.
Vascular Cambium
8
Replaces the epidermis with periderm, which is thicher and tougher. Produces hard, corky material -- expands outward.
Cork Cambium
9
Downward movement of sugars
Thicker the layer, more vigirous the tree
Is located between cork and vascular cambiums
Is a very narrow band in relation to xylem
Functions of Phloem
10
Transports water and nutrients up from ground to canopy
Stores reserves for times of stress
Support
Defense against spread of decay
Functions of Xylem
11
Takes place in meristematic tissue, where active cell division will take place
Mitosis
12
Primary and Secondary growth
2 Types of Mitosis
13
Sieve tubes and companion cells
2 Important Phloem Cells
14
Transfer sugar and nutrients from the top
Function of Sieve tubes
15
Between the bark and the vascular cambium is ___
Phloem
16
______ _______ is distinguished by two growth rings: early wood (light) and late wood (dark)
Secondary growth
17
Compartmentalization of Decay in Trees
CODIT
18
Walls that make up the reaction zone
Walls 1, 2 and 3
19
The outer portion of the xylem is ______, which contains living and non living cells.
Sapwood
20
_____ are balloon-like, cystalline swellings produces from starch-rich axial parenchyma cells that fill vessels of ring porous woody plants.
Tylosis
21
Phloem cells that surrounds and supports sieve tube elements
Companion Cells
22
Sieve Tubes
Companion Cells
Cambium
Rays
Parenchyma
Symplasts (living cells)
23
Outer Bark
Fibers
Mature Vessel Elements
Apoplasts (dead cells)
24
Father of "modern arboriculture"
Developed CODIT model
Dr. Alex Shigo
25
The central part where 1st years growth began
Pith
26
A dynamic tree defence process forming boundaries that resist the spread of pathogens.
Compartmentalization
27
Subdivisions of space
Compartments
28
Resists vertical spread of decay by plugging xyelm cells. Weakest wall and most likely to fail.
Wall 1
29
Resists inward spread of decay by the more compact late wood cells and by depositing chemicals in these cells. Formed by cells of the growth ring on the innser side of the wound. Slows spread of inward decay. Continuous until its interrupted by rays. Second weakest wall.
Wall 2
30
Composed of ray cells that limit lateral spreads of decay. Third weakest wall.
Wall 3
31
The strongest wall - consists of the new growth ring that forms after injury.
Wall 4
32
Consists of wall 4 in the next layer of wood to form after injury (new wood tissue,) protects against the outward spread of decay.
Barrier Zone
33
_____ is chemically altered, non living wood that maintains a static state.
Heartwood
34
Cracks that radiate in many directions, away from the point of fracture. One or more secondary cracks are _____ cracks.
Radial Cracks
35
In scientific naming of trees, the X is an indication of ______ _______.
Interspecific Hybrid
36
Bark that becomes embedded in a union, between branch and truck or between codominant stems. Causes a weak structure.
Included Bark
37
Forked stems nearly the same size in diameter, arising from a common junction and lacking a normal branch union.
Codominant Stems
38
Roots that grow around the truck of the tree, thus tending to strangle the tree. Restrics and cuts off the flow of water and nutrients.
Girdling roots
39
Plant tissue found only in the tips of shoots and roots, responsible for plant growth
Meristematic Tissue
40
A type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell, as in the production of gamates and plant spores.
Meiosis
41
The seperation or delamanation occouring on wall 4
Ring Crack
42
Risk assessment exposes you to greater ______. Training, experience and certifications are required.
Liability
43
1) Targets
2) Defects
2 Things to consider when assessing a hazardous tree
44
Understanding what a tree can physically harm whether that's a parked car, a house, people, a structure etc.
Target
45
The issue with the tree looking to be resolved in the terms of disease, decay and risk.
Defect
46
Management of naturally occuring and planted trees and associated plants in urban areas
Urban Forestry
47
Planting small plantations of fast-growing fuel wood trees and shrubs.
Community Forest
48
The cultivation of trees and shrubs
Arboriculture
49
Occurs when trees take up carbon from CO2 in the armosphere and store it in the form of wood and other carbon-based tissues.
Carbon Sequestration
50
The process of water entering young roots of mychorrizhal roots
Osmosis
51
Roots and fungi form _________ which are a symbiotic relationship aiding in the uptake of water and minerals
Mychorrihaze
52
Trees that lose their leaves in the fall
Decidious (Broad Leaf)
53
Trees that maintain their leaves for more than one year
Coniferious (Evergreen)
54
Mostly located in the upper 12 inches of soil
Absorbing Roots
55
Green pigment
Chlorophyll
56
Cell --> Tissue --> Organ
What is the order from smallest to largest?
57
Cobra cable is a dynamic cable that allows tree movement. Steel is a static cable which allows for natural tree sway but in a controlled manner.
2 Types of Cable sytems and uses
58
Radial and axial parenchyma are responsble for
Carrying and mobilizing sugars within the xylem
59
This type of parenchyma tissue runs parallel to the length of the organ or tissue it's found in, such as stems or roots. ____ parenchyma helps in the radial conduction of water and nutrients in plants.
Axial Parenchyma
60
_______ a tissue extends outward from the center of the organ or tissue, such as the pith or the vascular bundles. It helps in the lateral conduction of water and nutrients within the plant.
