Tissues and other
The internal transporting tissue in some plants that is made up of tube-like structures
What is Vascular Tissue?
Angiosperm
What are flowering plants that have seeds enclosed in fruit?
Anatomy of a female Gymnosperm reproductive structure
What is a female cone made up of scales each with two ovules?
Reproductive structure of an Angiosperm
What is a flower?
Define Cotyledon, Chloroplasts, Chlorophyll, and Vacuole
Cotyledon: a plant's seed leaf
Chloroplasts: an organelle containing chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place
Chlorophyll: a green pigment found in plants
Vacuole: Pockets that help maintain water balance and store materials
Xylem
What is Vascular Tissue that transports water throughout a vascular plant?
Gymnosperms
Male and female parts of a flower and their different parts
Female: Pistil made up of (top to bottom) stigma, style, ovary, ovule
Male: Stamen made up of (top to bottom) Anther and Filament
Reproductive structure of a Gymnosperm
What is a cone?
Define Zygote, Embryo, Germination, Root cap, and Ovule
Zygote: The result of sperm and an ovule fusing
Embryo: The container of a plant's roots as well as seed
Germination: The development of a plant from a seed/spore after dormancy
Root Cap: A tissue at the tip of a plant root that protects growing in plants
Ovule: The organ that forms the seeds of flowering plants
Phloem
What is Vascular Tissue that transports food throughout a vascular plant?
What is a food making process used by autotrophs involving sunlight
Differences between a Dicot and a Monocot
Dicot: leaves have branching veins, has 4-5 petals (or multiples of 4-5) petals, Vascular Tissue is arranged in a ring in the stem
Monocot:
leaves have parallel veins, has 3 (or multiples of 3) petals, Vascular Tissue is scattered throughout the stem
Pollination
What is when pollination is carried from the male anther to the female stigma of the ovary?
Sepal
What is parts of an angiosperm flower that enclose petals protecting them while in bud?
Tissues
What is a collection of organized cells performing a specific function for a plant?
3 parts of seed plants and their purposes
Stem: Support & Material transportation
Leaves: Capture sunlight for photosynthesis
Roots: Provide anchorage & absorb water and minerals
2 parts of a tree's bark
Outer bark: protects the tree
Inner bark: contains cambium which produces new phloem and xylem while the inner bark contains living phloem and xylem
Fertilization
What is when male sperm and female ovum (egg) fuse?
Fruit
The product of an Angiosperm that protects the plant's seeds as well as helps in seed dispersal
Compare and contrast Vascular and Non-Vascular plants
Vascular: have vascular tissue/vascular system for transporting materials/nutrients and are found on land
Non-Vascular: do not have a vascular tissue/vascular system for transporting materials/nutrients and are found in mainly moist or damp areas
Kinds of flowering plants (by years or growing seasons they survive lowest to highest)
Annuals: Last one growing season
Biennials: Live for two years
Perennials: Live for more than two years
A tree's rings inside the trunk are far apart. Explain
Rain was plentiful in these years so new rings didn't grow for a while.
1. Sporophyte: plant produces spores to grow into a new organism
2. Gametophyte: Plant produces sperm and egg cells that form a zygote which develops into a sporophyte that produces spores
(Process repeats)
Define hormone, dormancy, the different kinds of ---- day length plants, and two different kinds of tropism
Hormone: Chemicals produced by plants that affect their growth and development
Dormancy: When a plant goes into a stage of no development a stops growing or developing for a period of time
Short-day plant: Flowers when the night is longer
Long-day plant: Flowers when the night is shorter
Gravitropism: Response to gravity
Phototropism: Response to light
