Compare/Contrast
This is the difference between monocot and dicot plants.
What is monocots have 1 cotyledon and dicot have 2 cotyledons?
These are the powerhouse of the cell.
What are the mitochondria?
This is the name for the stem of a tree.
These are the 4 main needs of plants.
What are air, water, sunlight, and soil?
This is the Greek word that means "light."
What is photo?
This is the difference between tap roots and fibrous roots.
What is Taproot- large main root with root hairs
Fibrous- roots that branch out and do not have 1 main root
This is where photosynthesis takes place.
What is the chloroplasts?
These are the 4 main parts of a tree.
What are leaves, branches, trunk, and roots?
These are the main ways seeds travel.
What are human/animal/insect; wind, water; self?
This is the Greek word that means "to combine/put together."
What is to synthesis?
This is the difference between adventitious roots and other types of roots.
What is adventitious roots grow from a part of the plant other than the roots.
This is the part of the plant cell that contains DNA.
What is the nucleus?
This is the percentage and name of the largest part of a tree.
What is 60% and trunk?
These are the two main categories for types of fruit.
What is dry and fleshy fruit?
This is what plants take in from the air.
What is carbon dioxide (CO2)?
These are the categories of classification (taxonomy) in order from broadest to most specific.
What is Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species?
These are the main differences between plant and animal cells.
What is plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts which an animal cell does not, and a much bigger vacuole than an animal cell?
What are coniferous and deciduous trees?
These are the functions of the xylem and phloem.
What are
Xylem- takes the water and minerals from the roots, up the stem, to the leaves and flowers
Phloem- takes sugar and carbohydrates from the leaves to the roots?
This is what happens during photosynthesis.
What is plants take in carbon dioxide through their leaves and water through their roots. These combine to make glucose/sugar that the plant uses as food and then oxygen which it releases back into the air.
This is the difference between woody and herbaceous stems.
What is
These are the 15 parts of a plant cell (according to our model).
What are cell wall, plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, nucleolus, nuclear envelop, endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough), ribosomes, golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, mitochondria, peroxisome, vacuole, cytoskeleton?
These are reasons why people cut trees down.
What is trees are old, sick, to prevent forest fires, crowded/give new plants room to grow, to burn for fires (cook, warmth), to use to make things (furniture, bats, paper); building material (houses)?
These are the 7 main types of fruit and their definitions.
What are dehiscent (split open to release seeds); Indehiscent (do not split open when ripe); Berries (fleshy fruit that contains seeds inside); Drupes (stone fruit- flesh that surrounds a pit); Pomes (fleshy layer with a core); Aggregates (seeds throughout, many carpels); Multiples (cluster of flowers fuse together)?
This is the chemical formula for photosynthesis and what is produces.
6H2O + 6CO2 --> C6H12O2 + 6O2
