Plant Structures
Processes
100
a waxy coating that prevents water loss in a leaf
What is the cuticle?
100
vascular tissue that brings water and nutrients up from the roots to the rest of the plant
What is xylem?
100
tough layer of cells that protect the root
What is the root cap?
100
reproductive structure of the plant
What is a flower?
100
this is what is produced from photosynthesis
What is glucose?
200
tiny pores on the bottom of the leaf that bring in carbon dioxide and release oxygen
What are stomata?
200
vascular tissue that brings food back down
What is phloem?
200
structures that absorb water and nutrients as well as increase the root's surface area
What are root hairs?
200
fleshy structure of the plant that contains the seed
What is a fruit?
200
this is a waste product from photosynthesis (what the plant breathes out?
What is oxygen?
300
a pair of cells that surround the stoma and regulate the amount of air entering the plant and the amount of water vapor exiting the plant
What are guard cells?
300
thin layer of cells that separates xylem and phloem
What is cambium?
300
structure that anchors the plant, stores food, and absorbs water and nutrients from the soil
What are the roots?
300
multi-celled organism that absorbs water and nutrients and uses photosynthesis to produce energy
What is a plant?
300
this is the water movement and evaporation of a plant
What is transpiration?
400
structures that use carbon dioxide, water, and solar energy, to make glucose (food) for the plant
What are chloroplasts?
400
absorbent layer of tissue beneath the epidermis
What is the cortex?
400
surface layer of cells of the root and stem
What is the epidermis?
400
this a division of plants that contain tubular tissue
What are vascular plants?
400
this is the process where plants and some other organisms use water and carbon dioxide with solar energy to produce glucose and oxygen
What is photosynthesis?
500
the major structure where photosynthesis takes place
What is the leaf?
500
structure that supports the plant and its leaves
What is the stem?
500
these are the major structures of transpiration (2)
What are the roots, stem, and stomata?
500
structure that contains the young, developing plant and stored food
What is the seed?
500
this is what is released through the stomata if the plant contains enough water
What is water vapor?
