What is the part that takes water and dissolved minerals up (xylem) and food down (phloem)?
200
sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water
What is needed to photosynthesis to occur?
200
Photosynthesis
What is the name of the process that allows producers to capture energy from the sun?
200
Recycle energy from the sun and nutrients back into the soil.
What is the job of decomposers?
200
thick stems and needle like leaves

Transpiration
What is the process by which water vapor is given off during photosynthesis?

500
temperature, water, sunlight, soil quality
What are examples of abiotic factors that plants must adapt to to be able to live in certain biomes.
