Miscellaneous
100

1.Supports the leaves and branches 2.Transports water & minerals between roots and leaves 3. Stores water & food for future use

What is the the stem?

100

Transports water and sugars through the petiole and into the rest of the plant.

What is the vein?

100
To create food
What is the purpose of photosynthesis?
100

Long and narrow shaped leaves that are symmetrical.

What is Linear?

100

Plants make own food, have cell wall and chloroplasts, etc.

How are plants different from animals?

200

Is the part where the stem supports the branch and leaf so that they can grown outward and not fall

What is the Axil?

200

The end of the leaf. In some leaves, this part is pointed to make it uncomfortable for animals to eat them.

What is the Tip/Apex?

200
Carbon Dioxide, Water, Sunlight Energy
What is needed for photosynthesis?
200

Long and narrow ends with a point and a larger rounded base

What is Lanceolate?

200
Sunlight
Where does a cell get its energy to go through photosynthesis?
300

1. Attaches the leaf blade to the stem 2. Provides a connection from the stem to the leaf that allows transportation of food and water

What is a Petiole?

300

Provides strength throughout the leaf, keeping it sturdy in the wind

What is the midrib?

300
There is more sunlight during the day, providing more energy for photosynthesis to occur.
Why do plants have more sugar in them during daytime than at nighttime?
300

Large and long symmetrical rounded leaves. Sides are straight

What is Oblong ?

300
Carbon dioxide+water+sunlight energy>oxygen+sugar
What is the formula for photosynthesis?
400

The smallest veins in a leaf that transport water and sugar through the larger vein and into the petiole.

What is Venules?

400

All of the parts of the leaf without the petiole or stem.

What is a Leaf Blade?

400
In the leaf
Where is most of a plant's food made?
400

Rounded leaves that are curved throughout the leaf with a slightly pointed end.

What is Oval?

400
Cows eat grass, grass goes through photosynthesis.
How is a steak a result of photosynthesis?
500

The outside shape of the leaf.

What is the Margin?

500

Leaves soak in sun, soak up water & nutrients while breathing in carbon dioxide...breathing out oxygen and making glucose/sugar.  

What is photosynthesis?

500

Plants exhale it during photosynthesis

What is oxygen?

500

Egg-shaped with a larger base and slightly pointed end.

What is Ovate?

500
To deliver food and water to other parts of the plant.
Why is it important that tubes connect the leaf with the rest of the plant?
