Christian Conrad Sprengel
Ripened ovary of a flower.
Fruit
The ovary holds __, which are the plants future seeds.
Ovules
Plants that live through two growing seasons in order to complete their life cycle.
Biennials
Large swollen base of the pistil.
Ovary
Monocots have this kind of root system characterized by a primary root that remains small and many slender secondary roots growing from it in all directions.
Fibrous Root System
Glucose and ___ are products of photosynthesis.
Oxygen
Transfer of pollen from one flower to another.
Cross-pollination
Part of an embryo that will ultimately turn into the stem and leaves.

Which part of a seed is responsible for food storage?
Endosperm
Plants that live from year to year and bloom each growing season.
Perennial
This kind of leaf venation is charactrized by small veins branching from more than one main vein.
Palmate Veination
What two processess are needed for reproduction to occur?
Pollination and Fertilization
Petal-like flowers that surround the center of a composite family flower.
Ray Flowers
This leaf arrangement is highlighted by three or more leaves growing from the same node on a stem.
Whorled Arrangement
Organelle that holds the pigment responsile for photosynthesis.
Chloroplast
This kind of dispersal occurs when the ripened fruit of a flower bursts open and scatters the seeds some distance from the plant.
Mechanical Dispersal
Carbon dioxide, energy, and ___ are all products of cellular respiration.
Water
A carbohydrate found in the cell wall of plant cells.
Cellulose
This process combines glucose with oxygen to produce energy.
