Support the plant, and move water and nutrients up and down the plant between the leaves and roots.
What is the main function of the plant stem?
100
Underground
Where are roots found?
100
Gather sunlight, carry out photosynthesis, distribute nutrients to other parts of the plant through veins.
What is the function of leaves?
100
In some plants, seeds, cones and spores, in others, pistils, and stamens.
What are the structures in plants involved in reproduction?
200
Roots absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
What is the process by which plants get water and nutrients?
200
Xylem and Phloem
What are the tube-like structures inside the plant stem?
200
Hold a plant in the ground and collect water and nutrients for the plant.
What is the function of roots?
200
The process in which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and glucose.
What is photosynthesis?
200
Stamens make pollen and pistils make reproductive cells.
What is the functions of a plant's reproductive structures.
300
Transports the water and nutrients throughout the plant.
What is the stem?
300
Transports water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant.
What is xylem?
300
Underground and spread out pulled downward by gravity.
What is how and where the roots grow?
300
Photosynthesis is the only way plants can get food for themselves to stay alive and grow.
Why is photosynthesis important to plants?
300
Pollen must travel from the male reproductive parts to the female reproductive parts. Sometimes pollen does this on its own, other times it is carried by wind, water, or animals.
What is how pollination occurs in different plants?
400
Light energy, water, nutrients, CO2, chlorophyll.
What do plants need to create photosynthesis?
400
Transports glucose made in the plant leaves to the rest of the plant.
