100
There is where photosynthesis takes places
What is the mesophyll?

What are the male and female reproductive structures in a flower called?
Stamen= male reproductive structure Pistil= female reproductive structure
100

What are cotyledons?
100
Sexual Reproduction
What is the function of a flower?
200
The two types of systems plants use to live
What are vascular and nonvascular systems?
200
What opens and closes to balance water and air exchange in plants
What are guard cells and stomata?
200
Which part of a seed does sperm enter into the ovule? Which part of the seed is where it attaches to the ovary?
The pollen tube is where the sperm enters into the ovule and the hilum is where the seed attaches to the ovary.
200
These tubes suck up water into the plant from the roots
What are zylem?
200
An apple is one of these
What is an ovary?
300
this is the general location where all photosynthetic activity occurs
What is the leaf?

These are 2 types of roots
What is fibrous and tap?
300
Name the male parts of the flower
What is stamen, filament and anther?
300
Why are there no large moss plants?
Mosses are non-vascular so they have to absorb water and nutrients directly into their cells or the neighboring cells.
300
What is the difference between monocots and dicots?
Monocots- flower parts in 3s, vascular tissue in the stem is scattered, and the veins are parallel Dicots- flower parts in 4s or 5s, vascular tissue in the stem are in a ring, and the veins are branched
400
One of the two types of cells that make up the mesophyll
What is palisade mesophyll or spongy mesophyll.
400
Explain zylem and phloem
zylem - tube that brings water and nutrients up through the plant phloem - a tube that brings food and nutrients throughout the plant from the leaves by photosynthesizing
400
This is the name of male sperm
What is pollen?
400
Give two characteristics of gymnosperms.
Gymnosperms are vascular and produce seeds.
400
These flowers have both male and female parts
What is a complete (perfect) flower?
500
The name of a 2 name naming system used in taxonomy
What is Binomial Nomenclature?
500
The name of the substance created for photosynthesis to happen in the chlorophyll
What are chloroplasts?
500
Explain the process by which most gymnosperms reproduce
What is cone reproduction...
500
What are the two main groups of plants and what is the difference between them?
Vascular and non-vascular. Vascular plants have tubes that carry water/nutrients. Non-vascular plants do not.
