Characteristics of Plants
Plant Classification
Nonvascular and Seedless
Gymnosperms and Angiosperms
Plant Parts
100
This is the process that plant use to make food from the soil and sun with the help of green pigment called chlorophyll
What is photosynthesis
100
This is the classification that ferns, horsetails, and club mosses belong to
What is Seedless Vascular Plants
100
Rather than seeds ferns reproduce by using these which are smaller and less protected than seeds
What are spores
100
Gymnosperms reproduce sexually when the male fertilizes the female of what two structures
What are cones
100
This is the part of the plant that contains chlorophyll and allows photosynthesis to take place
What are leaves
200
This is the waxy layer on the outside of plants which helps them to preserve water on hot or dry days
What is cuticle
200
This is the classification of a rose
What is angiosperm
200
Ferns, horsetails, and clubmosses that lived 30 Million Years ago were burried in swamps and have retained their energy in the form of this, which we now use to heat our houses
What is coal
200
This is the reproductive structure in Angiosperms that helps to attract animals which pollinate the plant
What is flower
200
This is the part of the root at the end which protects the tip and helps the root grow
What is a root cap
300
This is the rigid structure on the outside of every plant cell which gives the plant its support
What is cell wall
300
This is how pine trees are classified
What is gymnosperm
300
When new rock is first exposed such as after a volcano eruption nonvascular plants are often the first plants to colonize an area and leave behind a thin layer of this
What is soil
300
Andiosperms are further classified into two classes, the first includes maple trees and the second includes corn
What are dicot and monocot
300
This is the type of stem an oak tree would have
What is a woody stem
400
This is the stage of the plant's life cycle characterized by the plants unfertilized egg and sperm
What is a gametophyte
400
What are maple trees classified as
What are angiosperms
400
Vascular Plants are adapted to dry land thanks to these two tissues, the first transports water and nutrients, the second transports food
What are xylem and phloem
400
These are the male and female parts of an angiosperm which are necesary for pollination
What stamen, and pistil
400
This is the outer layer of cells on a plant
What is the epidermis
500
This is the stage in the life of a plant after the seed has been fertilized including both seeds and adult trees
What is Sporophyte
500
Name three types of plants classified as nonvascular
What are mosses, liverworts, and hornworts
500
This is the horizontal stem that produces more leaves shoots and roots as ferns grow
What is rhizome
500
Name the three parts of the seed
What are young plant (sporophyte),food stored in cotyledon, and seed coat
500
This is the type of root that branches out into many pieces at the end of the stem. It is also common in monocots
What is a fibrous root
