1
Water and _________ dissolved in water are absorbed by the root hairs.
minerals
1
It is also known as a plant's water transport system. It transports water and mineral ions up the plant.
xylem vessels
1
The chloroplast is inside the plant cell in the ________ of a plant.
leaves
1
There are ____________ stomata on the surface of the leaf facing the sun to prevent excessive water loss.
fewer
1
Transpiration is the loss of ___________ from the leaves of a plant.
water vapour
2
Water moves into the ____________from the soil. It passes through the cell wall and the cell membrane into the cytoplasm.
root hair cell
2
Where in the roots can you find the xylem vessels?
centre
2
Why does water enter the chloroplast?
because it reacts with carbon dioxide to make the food for the plant and oxygen for humans and animals
2
One stoma is made up of two ________ cells.
guard
2
Why does transpiration happen mostly from the underside of a leaf, not the top?
most of the stomata are found on the underside of a leaf
3
Mineral ions like ___________ and __________ move into the root hair cell.
magnesium, nitrates
3
If true, say true; if false, say the incorrect word.
Xylem vessels are living cells found in the roots, stems, and leaves.
living
3
What liquid solution will you use to test if the leaf of the plant has starch?
iodine solution or just iodine
3
____________ happens at the stomata of the plant leaves.
Gas exchange
3
water → chloroplast for photosynthesis → soaks into the cellulose cell wall of the plant cell → changes to water vapour → water ______________
evaporates
