Flowers
The part of the flower that will become the fruit.
What is the ovary?
The transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma
What is Pollination
The vascular tissue that carries water up the stem.
What is xylem?
An example of an edible root or part of a root
What are carrots
What are radishes
What are potatoes, yams, sweet potatoes
Photosynthesis
What is CO2 + H2O + solar energy = glucose + O2
The main job of the petals & nectar of a flower.
What is to attract a pollinator?
The part of the plant that contains the embryo (or baby plant)
What is the seed, fruit, ovary, or ovule
The vascular tissue that transports sugar throughout the plant.
What is phloem?
Two things roots do for the plant.
What is bring in water, nutrients, minerals;
What is provide support for plant;
What is store food
This process is the opposite of photosynthesis
What is cellular respiration? It's what animals (and plants) do to get energy out of the glucose
The part of the flower that will become the seed.
What is the ovule?
True or False. The pistil is the female part of the flower.
True
The direction water moves through the xylem.
What is upward movement?
The purpose of cellular respiration (Hint: what is it we want to get from the glucose)
What is the radicle
The purpose of cellular respiration (Hint: what is it we want to get from the glucose)
What is combining glucose with oxygen to MAKE ENERGY.
The classification of most angiosperm plants (hint: they have 2 cotyledons)
What is a dicot? or dicotyledon
The name of the male part of the flower
What stamen, anther or filament
Stems of this vegetable differ from others because the hairs on this stem can form into roots
What is the tomato?
The tiny holes in leaves through which air passes
What is the stomata
The description of what happens during germination (list at least 2 different things that happen)
What is the seed swells and seed coat breaks
the seeds food storage is used as fuel for growth
radicle emerges downward
shoot emerges
"first leaves" or cotyledon are seen
Two ways that monocots and dicots differ from each other
What are the number of cotyledons, venation, number of petals, and type of root system.
The process by which a male sperm cell from a pollen grain unites with a female egg cell in the ovary
What is Fertilization
A property of water that allows water to travel upward in the plant (against the pull of gravity)
What is adhesion (water's ability to stick to the sides of the xylem) OR cohesion (water's ability to stick to itself)
The part of the leaf cell where photosynthesis takes place.
What is a chloroplast
The description of what happens in the roots, stem and leaves to get water from the soil to the leaves
What is water going into the roots by osmosis
What is water leaving the leaf by evaporation creating a vacuum - sucking up the water
What is water sticking to the sides of the xylem (adhesion) and to itself (cohesion) pulling more water up the stem
