IDENTIFICATION OF MAIN ORGANS AND MODIFICATION OF GREEN LEAF PLANTS

Abstract

Plant diversity is not only seen morphologically, but can also be distinguished anatomically. Anatomical features can be distinguished as support and reinforcement for classifying plant species. This study aims to observe the morphology of the shape of the plant organs and to observe the anatomy of the constituent tissues of the plant organs. The types used were 19, which are representatives of the main organs that make up plants, namely roots, stems and leaves, while other modified organs are flowers, fruits and seeds.

The research method used is descriptive method with a qualitative approach through observation of 19 different plant species. To obtain valid research results, samples were taken of several plants that have in common, namely plants that have green leaves.

The results showed that the 19 types of plants observed had similarities in the characteristics of their leaves, which were green and there were also similarities in the main organs that make up the plants, namely roots, stems and leaves and in other modified organs such as flowers, fruits and seeds. However, there are some plants that do not have these characteristics but are not included in this study.
