500

Within the plant, this vascular tissue is what water and nutrients use to travel up to all parts of the plant.

What are xylem tubes

500

the organelle in which cellular respiration occurs?

mitochondria

I am the leaflike structure around the petals that protects the developing flower.

What is the sepal?


500

A plants response to less daylight and heat
