Growth in Plants
Stomata Stuff
100
The vascular tissue in plants that conducts water and dissolve nutrients upwards from the root and also helps to form the woody element in the stem
What is the xylem?
100
Water turns into vapor and passes out through thousands of tiny pores (stomata) through the process of ____. It helps to cool the plant and pump water and minerals to the leaves for photosynthesis.
What is transpiration?
100
the transport of organic solutes in a plant
What is translocation?
100

undifferentiated cells that are undergoing active cell division; growth in plants are confined to regions known as _____

What are meristems?

(plant stem cells)

100

The name for the pores in the green parts of plants

STOMATA!!!

200
The vascular tissue in plants that conducts sugars and other metabolic products downward from the leaves
What is the Phloem?
200

A cluster of xylem and phloem surrounded by a sheath

Vascular Bundle

200
Produces sugar by photosynthesis in leaves or green stems or by hydrolysis of starch in storage vessels (germinating seeds or roots/tubers) and deliver these products via the phloem to the sink (roots, buds, stem, seeds, and fruits)
What is a source?
200

The growth on the above-ground portions of the plant are usually proportional to the growth of the...

Plant Root Systems

200

The number of guard cells surrounding a stoma

2

300

The force that allows water to stick to the Xylem as it flows upwards

What is adhesion?

300
Water enters the roots cells by the process of _____
What is osmosis?
300

The upward force of water once it has entered the roots of plants

Root Pressure

300

The direction of which stems grow can be influenced by

1) Humidity

2) Wind

3) Temperature


300

The stomata are open when the guard cells are_________with water.

OR

Have high ___________

(two ways of describing this)

Turgid or turgitdity

(Tugata) 

400

The process of tiny droplets that exit through pores at the end of leaf veins on vascular plants. During humid days and cold nights.

Guttation

400

Water and ions can travel into the root by moving between cells or along cell walls is called what ___ ____

What is the extracellular pathway?

400
this cell maintains the sieve tubes and has many mitochondria to produce ATP for active transport of organic compounds into sieve tubes.
What is the companion cell?
400

During the night, plants are undergoing this cellular process.

This process also happens all day long too.

Respiration

400

The times of the day you would expect to see stomata closed (2)

1) During hottest parts of the day

2) During the Night

500

Water is drawn from the bottom of a plant (roots) to the top of a plant (leaves) via these three processes.


(3 things that make up the Cohesion-Tension Theory)

1) Root Pressure

2) Cohesion and Adhesion in the Xylem

3) Transpiration

500

Water and ions can travel into the root by moving from cell to cell via the plasmodesmata through the ______ ______

What is the intracellular pathway?

500

The type of sugar plants convert glucose from photosynthesis to for transport.

What is sucrose?

500

An important element for plant growth because it is necessary for the formation of proteins

Nitrogen

500

Three main structures in guard cells that serve their function.

1) Strong inelastic fibres in them

2) The have a thicker cell wall at the opening

3) they are joined at two places (either end of the cells)
