Plant Processes
100
These are colorful to attract birds and insects.
What are the petals?
100
This part of the stamen produces pollen.
What is the anther?
100
This is the waxy skin on the outside of the leaf.
What is the cuticle?
100
This is the most important function of a leaf.
What is to make food?
100
This is the process of pollen moving from an anther to a stigma.
What is pollination?
200
This is the male part of a flower.
What is the stamen?
200
These protect the bud before it blooms.
What are sepals?
200
These are on the bottom of the leaf. They allow gases to pass through the leaf.
What is the stomata?
200
This is why leaves have a large surface area.
What is to trap more sunlight?
200
This is when a seed sprouts into a new plant.
What is germination?
300
This is the female part of the flower.
What is the pistil or carpel?
300
This is sticky to catch pollen during pollination.
What is the stigma?
300
This is the green pigment in the leaf that collects sunlight.
What is chlorophyll?
300
This enters through the stomata and is required for photosynthesis.
What is carbon dioxide?
300
This is the process of pollen reaching an ovule.
What is fertilization?
400
This is where the pollen tube grows after pollination.
What is the style?
400
This gives support to the anther.
What is the filament?
400
This is found near the top of the leaf. It contains chlorophyll that traps sunlight.
What are chloroplasts?
400
This is the tissue that carries water for the plant.
What is the xylem?
400
This is the process of water evaporating from a leaf.
What is transpiration?
500
This is where the seed and fruit develop in a flower.
What is the ovary?
500
This grows around the seeds to protect them until germination.
What is the fruit?
500
This is the tissue that carries food to the plant.
What is phloem?
500
These protect the stomata by opening and closing.
What are guard cells?
500
This process has been called the most important process to any ecosystem because it allows plants to make their own food.
What is photosynthesis?
