100
The anchor of a plant, that also absorbs water and nutrients.
What are roots?
100

Attaching one piece of a plant to another piece and letting it grow 

What is grafting 

100

The part of the plant that absorbs energy to create its own food 

What is a leaf?

100

Three types of soil 

What is sandy soil, clay soil and loam soil

100
Organisms that produce their own energy.
What are producers?
200
The process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentratiion to areas of low concentration.
What is diffusion?
200

The two types of reproduction in plants

What is asexual and sexual reproduction

200

The process by which plants take in oxygen and use their own sugar and convert it to usable energy that allows the plant to live and grow

What is cellular respiration?

200
The condition in which a salt crust that has collected on the surface of the soil.
What is salinization?
200
An organism that annoy us or affect our ability to produce food and fibre .
What is a pest?
300
A chemical process that converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds, especially sugars, using the energy from sunlight.
What is photosynthesis?
300

A process that involves choosing specific plants with particular characteristics and encouraging these plants to reproduce.

What is selective breeding?

300

True or False: Plants grow at night

True

300

The process by which soil is removed by wind or water.

What is erosion?

300
A substance used to control insects or other organisms that are harmful to plants or animals.
What is a pesticide?
400

This is the process by which roots take up water.

What is osmosis?

400

The female part of a flower (or pistil)

Stigma - Style - Ovary - Ovules

400

The process of plants taking up liquid and releasing it into the air through their leaves.

What is transpiration?

400
A technique for growing plants without soil.
What is hydroponics?
400
Using a pest's natural enemy to control it.
What is biological control?
500
Sunlight + CO₂ + H₂0 = C₆H₁₂O₆ (sugar) + O₂
What is the formula for photosynthesis?
500

Explain pollination using the words: anther, ovary, ovules, style, stigma and pollen 

Pollen from the anther lands on the stigma, goes gown style and into the ovary which pollinates the ovules (eggs), eventually creating a seed

500

The tendency of a liquid to be drawn upward against gravity

what is capillary action?

500

nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium (N-P-K) 

500

Take up all the water and nutrients.
