Miscellaneous
100

A network of tiny tubes that transports food, water and minerals throughout most plants (two words)

Vascular System
100

Photosynthesis takes place in this plant cell organelle

Chloroplast
100

The first part of a plant’s scientific name

Genus
100

The sugar that is created during photosynthesis

Glucose
100

The study of plants

Botany
200

Vascular tissue that transports water and minerals up from a plant’s roots to its stem and leaves

Xylem
200

The part of a leaf that runs through the blade and is part of a plant’s vascular system

Veins
200

The second part of a plant’s scientific name

Species
200

These are the two reactants of photosynthesis (on the left side of the equation)

Carbon dioxide and Water
200
A chemical that absorbs certain types of light
Pigment
300

This type of tissue is found only in the stems of plants

Growth Tissue
300

Found on the underside of leaves, these allow gases such as oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor to enter and leave a plant

Stomata
300

Coming from the greek words for “capsule” and “seed,” this is the name for a flowering plant

Angiosperm
300

Cellular respiration takes place in this cell organelle

Mitochondria
300

A scientist that collects data such as precipitation and temperature from tree rings in order to reconstruct climates from the past

Dendroclimatologist
400

Vascular tissue that transports food from a plant’s leaves down to the rest of the plant

Phloem
400

This connects a plant’s leaf to its stem

Petiole
400

With their name meaning “naked seed,” this is the name for a nonflowering seed plant

Gymnosperm
400

These are the two things are both the products of photosynthesis and the reactants for cellular respiration

Oxygen and Glucose
400

Ferns do not have seeds. Instead, they release this type of reproductive cell into the air

Spores
500

Growth tissue in trees turns to wood and forms one of these each year (three words)

Annual Growth Rings
500

A green pigment found in the leafy part of plants that absorbs energy from sunlight

Chlorophyll
500

The common name for “Acer Rubrum”

Red Maple
500

The energy molecule produced during cellular respiration

ATP
500

This type of nonvascular plant is short and must have constant contact with moisture because they do not have tubes to transport water and other materials
