Living Organisms
Some examples are insects, fish, birds, monkeys and human beings.
Animals
Animals that help move pollen between flowering plants are called...
Pollinators
True or False: Plant cells breathe just like humans.
False: Plants respire, but it is not that same thing as breathing.
This is the process that plants use to make their own food.
Photosynthesis
This is the part of the plant that holds it up.
The stem
Some examples are oak trees, rose bushes, and grass.
Plants
Nectar
True or False: Plants only respire at night.
False: Plants respire at all the time but only photosynthesize when they are in sunlight.
This is the sap that is made when plants absorb water and minerals from their roots.
Xylem Sap
Days are shorter and there is less sunlight in:
A. Autumn
B. Summer
A. Autumn
Some examples are mushrooms, mould, and yeast.
Fungi
This occurs when pollen lands on the stigma and travels into the ovule.
Fertilization
During respiration, plants release this gas as a waste product.
Carbon Dioxide
Phloem Sap
Days are longer and there is more sunlight in:
A. Spring
B. Winter
A. Spring
These are very microscopic organisms.
Bacteria
Sometimes the ovary changes shape and size and becomes a fruit. Why are some seeds surrounded by fruit?
During respiration, plants absorb or take in this gas from the air.
Oxygen
During photosynthesis, plants absorb or take in this gas from the air.
Carbon Dioxide
List the three vital functions.
Nutrition, interaction, and reproduction.
These are very small organisms that live in water, such as amoebas.
Algae and Protozoa
This is the process of a seed sprouting into a new plant once it has come in contact with water and the right temperature.
Germination
During photosynthesis, plants release this gas as a waste product.
Oxygen
Plants release excess water during this as water vapor.
Transpiration
