Plant Structure
Plants are made of these types of cells.
What are Eukaryotic Cells?
Plants use this process to make their own food.
What is Photosynthesis?
Plants are called this because they make their own food.
What are Producers/Autotrophs?
Plants can reproduce by spreading these tiny cells instead of seeds.
What are Spores?
The process by which plants sense and respond to light.
What is Phototropism?
The stiff outer layer that give plant cells support.
What is the Cell Wall?
The two main products of photosynthesis are
What are Glucose and Oxygen?
The waxy layer that prevents water loss in leaves.
What is the Cuticle?
The male reproductive structure in flowering plants.
What is the Stamen?
The movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane.
What is Osmosis?
This organelle is where photosynthesis takes place.
What is the Chloroplast?
This process breaks down sugars to release energy in cells.
What is Cellular Respiration?
Seedless plants that do not have vascular tissue are part of this group.
What are Bryophytes?
The female reproductive organ in seed plants.
What is the Pistil (or Ovule)?
The tiny openings in leaves that allow for gas exchange.
This tissue transports water from the roots to the rest of the plant.
What is Xylem?
The formula for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O + light -> ______ + 6O2
What is C6H12O6 (Glucose)?
Name one adaptation that allowed plants to survive on land.
What is the development of a Cuticle, Vascular Tissue, or a Cell Wall?
In mosses and ferns, this generation is dominant and visible.
What is the Diploid Generation?
Plant hormone responsible for cell elongation and growth.
What is Auxin?
These structures anchor nonvascular plants to surfaces instead of roots.
What are Rhizoids?
The plant tissue that transports sugars and other nutrients.
What is Phloem?
The two main groups of seed plants.
What are Gymnosperms and Angiosperms?
Angiosperms produce seeds inside this structure.
What is a Fruit?
The process where pollen lands on the female reproductive structure of a plant.
What is Pollination?
