Landscape design
A formal balance achieved by repeating features in a mirror image on both sides of a visible or imaginary line.
What is Symmetrical Balance?
Absorbs water and minerals from the ground. Anchors plant in the ground.
What are Roots?
the process of a seed growing into a new plant
What is Germination?
Starting a new plant using parts other than seeds
What is asexual propagation?
The light-absorbing green-colored pigment that begins the process of photosynthesis.
What is Chlorophyll?
A single plant, plant group, or other feature which attracts the eye most in a space. The most dominant landscape feature.
What is a Focal Point?
Vascular tissue that carries water upward from the roots to every part of a plant (up and out).
What is Xylem?
What three factors affect germination?
Temperature, Oxygen and Water
The joining of a stem to a rootstock which merges two plants parts to function together as a unit.
What is grafting?
The 3 reactants in photosynthesis
What is Sunlight, Carbon Dioxide, and Water?
Informal balance achieved by placement of plants and features of unequal characteristics but equal visual weight on both sides of a visible or imaginary line.
What is Asymmetrical Balance?
Supporting structure that connects roots and leaves and carries water and nutrients between them.
What is a Stem?
What is a part that becomes the leaves and stem of the new plant
What is a radicle?
Using seeds to create new plants
What is sexual propagation?
The end products of photosynthesis
What is sugar and oxygen
A sense of oneness, in which everything in the design fits together as a whole, with no extraneous or unrelated pair.
What is Unity?
Living vascular tissue that carries sugar and organic substances throughout a plant (up and in)
What is Phloem?
The par that becomes the leaves and stem of the new plant
What is a Plumule?
To cut a piece of stem diagonally, remove leaves from lower half, and stick the lower half into a rooting medium.What is the stem cutting process?
What is the stem cutting?
Two molecules that are produced by the light-dependent reaction.
What is ATP and NADPH?
The use of the same plants, construction materials, or design principles throughout , or in more than one part of the design.
What is Repetition?
Space or distance on a stem between two consecutive nodes.
What is an Internode?
A hole in the testa that lets water into the seed.
What is a Micropyle?
Creeping underground stem, usually horizontal that produces roots and leaves at the nodes
What is a rhizome?
The chemical equation for Photosynthesis
What is 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
