Cells
This organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell.
What is the mitochondria?
Photosynthesis requires these 3 components.
Sunlight, water, & Carbon Dioxide
This type of plant lives for one year.
What is an annual?
This is the function of the stem.
Move water & nutrients, support the leaves & flowers, hold the plant upright, etc.
This part of the plant produces food for the plant.
What are the leaves?
This organelle is the cell's control center (Hint: it contains chromosomes).
What is the nucleus?
This is where photosynthesis occurs.
What is the mesophyll of the leaves?
This is the difference between a mature and immature plant.
What is the flower?
Give an example of a tap root.
What is a carrot, dandelion, parsnip, etc.?
This part of the plant stores food, absorbs water, & anchors the plant.
What are the roots?
This is what gives plants their green pigment.
What is chlorophyll?
This organelle is where most of cellular respiration occurs.
What is the mitochondria?
Asparagus is an example of this life span of plants.
What is a perennial?
This is the bud located at the tip of a stem.
What is the terminal bud?
This is what a radicle is.
What is the primary root that develops from the plant embryo?
This organelle transports and processes proteins in the cell.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
List an example of a plant not partaking in photosynthesis.
Deciduous trees in winter
A plant plumule is this.
What is the first shoot/stem of a seedling?
This is the apical meristem.
What is the growing point of roots & buds?
This is what a monoecious plant is.
What is a plant that has male and female reproductive parts on the SAME plant?
This organelle produces proteins for the rest of the cell.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
This cellular process cools & regulates the temperature of the plant.
What is transpiration?
This is the difference between the cotyledons in a seed and a seedling.
In the seed - provide nutrients & energy for the seed to germinate.
Seedling - first leaves to appear on a germinating plant.
This is a corolla.
What is the group/whorl of petals?
What is the difference between a perfect & complete flower?
A perfect flower just has both male and female parts; a complete flower has ALL flower parts.
