Margins and Mosaic
100
Plants that are not woody are broadly classified this way
What is "herbaceous?"
100
The plant tissues that participate in photosynthesis are this type of tissue.
What is structural?
100
The main support of the plant.
What is the stem?
100
A shape like an upside-down heart.
What is chordate?
100
This kind of leaf margin is most likely featured in every dentist's garden.
What is toothed, dentate or serrate?
200
Plants that continue to grow and reproduce longer than two years are referred to as this.
What is perennial?
200
The cells in meristematic tissue are capable of doing this.
What is mitosis?
200
The part of a leaf with shape, venation and margin.
What is the blade?
200
You could remember the name of this type of venation by looking at your open hand just before a face palm. . .
What is palmate?
200
This kind of leaf mosaic closely resembles a pinwheel.
What is whorled?
300
Technically, tomatoes are this type of plant organ.
What is a fruit?
300
Of xylem and phloem, the one with the thicker cell wall.
What is xylem?
300
A leaf stalk that attaches the leaf to the plant.
What is the petiole?
300
The area of the blade of this leaf shape could be calculated using pi-r-squared.
What is circular?
300
A smooth leaf margin is called this.
What is entire?
400
Reproductive plant organs contain the fruit, seeds and these.
What are flowers?
400
Xylem and phloem are considered this type of tissue.
What is vascular?
400
God could have used this part of a "male" leaf to make a "female" leaf.
What is the midrib?
400
This shape describes a typical blade of grass.
What is linear?
400
This leaf mosaic features pairs of petioles emerging 180 degrees apart at the same height on the stem.
What is opposite?
500
Peas and corn are technically not vegetables because they are this.
What are seeds?
500
The xylem and phloem carry water and this throughout the plant.
What are dissolved minerals?
500
The small, paired appendages that are found at the base of the petiole of the leaves of many flowering plants.
What is the stipule?
500
Literally, a type of venation in which the veins never touch each other.
What is parallel?
500
If serrations are larger and smoothly sloping, we say that the margin is this.
What is undulate?
