Here is a concise outline of the key topics covered in the chapter “Anatomy of Flowering Plants” for Class 11 Biology, important for NEET preparation:

 

Tissues

 

Types of plant tissues

Meristematic tissues (apical, lateral, intercalary)

Permanent tissues (simple and complex)

Simple Tissues

 

Parenchyma

Collenchyma

Sclerenchyma

Complex Tissues

 

Xylem (tracheids, vessels, xylem fibers, xylem parenchyma)

Phloem (sieve tubes, companion cells, phloem fibers, phloem parenchyma)

The Tissue System

 

Epidermal tissue system (epidermis, stomata, trichomes)

Ground tissue system (cortex, endodermis, pericycle, pith)

Vascular tissue system (stele, vascular bundles)

Anatomy of Dicotyledonous and Monocotyledonous Plants

 

Dicot root

Monocot root

Dicot stem

Monocot stem

Dicot leaf

Monocot leaf

Secondary Growth

 

Vascular cambium and cork cambium

Formation of secondary xylem and secondary phloem

Growth rings (annual rings)

Periderm (cork, phelloderm, phellogen)

Anatomy of Leaf

 

Dorsiventral (dicot) leaf

Isobilateral (monocot) leaf

Anomalous Secondary Growth

 

Examples and causes of anomalous secondary growth

These topics cover the essential aspects of the anatomy of flowering plants, crucial for understanding plant internal structure and functions, and preparing for NEET Biology.
